Hammamet




The old fortress on the seashore protects luxury hotels among the orange,
lemon, jasmine groves and orchards. Everywhere - the realm of Tunisian
architecture. Hammamet - haven of beauty, sunshine and
melancholia. Flaubert, Maupassant, Wilde, Churchill, were conquered by his
charm.

Hammamet - it is the oldest in the country's
tourist center, giving Tunisia, 25 percent of all tourism revenues.
Hammamet has a unique appearance. All resorts Tunis green and have
beautiful parks, but even among them Hammamet stands out for its lush
gardens. The main principle of urban planning in Hammamet - at home should
not exceed the height of cypresses. Therefore Hammamet - the most graphic
illustration of the expression «buried in verdure» ,
for which, in fact, can hardly see the city buildings and hotels.
Therefore, in 647, Tunisia became easy prey for the Arab conquerors, who
for many centuries strengthened its rule. Then followed the period of
Ottoman domination (1574 - 1881 gg.), Which is already in our time over a
French protectorate (1881 - 1956 gg.).

Hammamet is situated on the coast, 70 km south-east of Tunisia.
Hammamet Resort zone stretched about 14 km along the seashore. From north
to adjoin the small resort town of Nabeul. South as part of Hammamet -
Hammamet Sud or Yasmine-Hammamet - a new tourist area, which a few years
to grow into independent prestigious resort.

Hammamet has a long history that goes back to the period of Roman
rule. In the vicinity of Hammamet archeologists discovered the ruins of
Roman villas and baths, which indicates that these places have been
popular for recreation and amusement since ancient times. The name of the
city, probably dates back to the Arabic word "hammam", that means "baths".
In place of modern Hammamet in the Middle Ages arose populous Arab city.
This still resembles a fortress Ribat, towering on the waterfront in the
city center.

Suss




Susc - a large resort town on the Mediterranean coast.
In Susce live 100 thousand people, it is the third most populated city of
Tunis. By number of hotels it shares first place with another popular
resort in Tunisia - Hammamet. Just like Hammamet, Susc perfectly
suited for active recreation
. This resort is famous for its
bustling nightlife, discos and casinos, as well as its beautiful beaches
with beautifully white and fine sand.

Sucs conveniently located in relation to major international airports
in Tunisia: Monastir airport - 12 km, airport Tunis, Tunisia - 140 km.
From north to Sucsu adjoins the world-famous resort area of Port El
Kantaoui.

Few cities can boast of such a venerable age. Sousse was founded in
the IX century BC by the Phoenicians as a colony towns. Phoenician name
Sucsa - Gadrumet. The town gained importance as a major Mediterranean
trading port. City reached its zenith during the period of the
Carthaginian empire. The wealth he was second only to Carthage itself.
During the Third Punic War Sucs became the headquarters of the famous
Carthaginian commander Hannibal, who was trying to resist the landing in
North Africa by the Roman legions.

Monastir




Monastir - a resort town on the Mediterranean
coast. Tourist, first arrived in Monastir, probably immediately struck a
combination of grand avenues and buildings from the provincial character
of this small town.

This apparent contradiction is explained simply: Monastir - this
hometown of the first president of independent Tunisia - Habib Bourguiba.
In the 60's to 10 percent of the state budget was spent on the development
of Tunisia Monastir. Here were built wide avenues, beautiful
area, which would have done credit to any metropolitan city, congress
halls, a magnificent promenade and picturesque marina
. The city
was built on a grand scale, "with room for growth." The central square
Monastir rises majestic mausoleum of President Habib Bourguiba. Monastir -
is a favorite place of work and rest for the American producer George
Lucas. The first series of the cycle of Indiana Jones filming in the
studio in a suburb of Monastir. A few early episodes of "Star Wars" - a
little further south, in the Matmata - the underground city troglodytes.
District Monastir - the perfect place to relax at sea.
There are a lot of places for walking, weight cozy restaurants and bars,
souvenir shops. However, the nightlife here is not as vigorous as the
resorts of Sousse and Hammamet.

Monastir is located on the coast 24 kilometers south of the resort
town of Sousse. From the north to the resort area adjacent Monastir
Skanes, which is located next to the airport of Monastir. President Habib
Bourguiba - main international airport in the region.

Like most modern cities in Tunisia, Monastir is on the site of the
ancient Phoenician city - a colony founded in V century BC. In the modern
name of the city feel the influence of Christianity. The fact is that in
the V century AD, the Byzantines built a strong fortress here to protect
the commercial port. The garrison of the fortress were warrior-monks, whom
he called by the word of Greek origin - "monaster. So there is a new name
of the city. On the ensuing period of Arab history in Monastir still
resembles an old fort Ribat and the so-called "Medina" - a medieval Arab
city with city wall, which now are trade stalls, cafes and restaurants. P>
