About Tunisia
Tunisia lies in North Africa on the Mediterranean coast, bordered by Algeria to the west and Libya to the southeast. The country spans from fertile coastal plains and forested hills in the north to the Sahara Desert in the south. The capital, Tunis, is home to a medieval medina recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the ancient ruins of Carthage are located nearby. Despite being one of the smaller North African nations, Tunisia offers considerable geographic and cultural variety, from Roman archaeological sites to whitewashed coastal towns and desert landscapes.
