Discover the new Tunisia 2 The Kasbah, Tunis 3 Destination Destination A country’s new dynamism P erhaps it will be said one day that the country which triggered off the Arab Spring will also be the country which best completed its Revolution. Within a year Tunisia would have shown the world a peaceful uprising of the whole society, the toppling of the regime with no excessive displays of violence, the establishment of a calm transitional period, successful elections with the massive participation of the Tunisians and finally a provisional government which accepted the rules of the democratic game. Civil society has been constantly demonstrating its dynamism and vigilance to ensure that the newly acquired liberties are indeed respected. The maturity of the Tunisians throughout this process has been applauded by the observers and hopefully it will lead to an authentic democracy which would be the first in the Arab world. 4 Under the sign of Modernity T unisian modernity has its roots in one-and-a-half century of a reformist movement. From the middle of the XIXth century, the country was already avant-garde in the Arab world by abolishing slavery and promulgating a Constitution. The university of the Ezzitouna mosque in Tunis stood out due to its progressist interpretations of Islam. Thinkers like Kheireddine and Tahar Haddad prompted the reflections on the modernisation of the State, the status of women and the social question. In Tunisia this lead to the emergence of the first independent trade union in the Arab world (1924), whilst the Personal Status Code promulgated by Bourguiba ever since Independence abolished polygamy and repudiation, so that women had more-or-less equal rights with men (1956). Tunisia sparked off the Arab Spring and today it stands out in view of the high level of education of its youth, the vitality of civil society and the presence of women in public spaces. 5 Destination Women of Tunisia T he situation of women in Tunisia is surprising and thus makes the country stand apart. Can the volontarist policies of the XXth century provide an explanation for this ? In fact many great women have stood out throughout the country’s history, such as Elyssa, the founder of Carthage, Kahena who lead the resistance against the Arab conquest, Jazia, the inspiration of the Hilal conquest, Aziza Othman, the benefactress princess who gave her name to a hospital in Tunis. Ever since the Middle Ages the aristocratic families included in the marriage contracts a clause protecting the wife against polygamy, a procedure known as the “Kairouanese marriage”. Polygamy passed into disuse in Tunis in the XIXth century. Manoubia Wertani spoke in public without being veiled in 1924, Bchira Ben Mrad launched the country’s first women’s organisation in 1937 and these women opened up the way for the early emancipation of Tunisian women. 6 A new start for the economy D espite the years of growth and a respectable classification in terms of the Human Development Indicator (98th ranking out of the 182 countries and 4th ranking in Africa), the post-14th January Tunisia discovered the extent of its social problems. Unemployed young diplomaholders and regional disparities sparked off this unprecedented social explosion. In Tunisia today there is a consensus to turn its back on the economic model of “growth without development” and to direct investments as a priority towards the hinterland regions where numerous infrastructure projects have already been programmed this year in the State budget. Furthermore, for the first time there are now direct negotiations between the trade unions and the employers so that the serenity, which had been lost since the 14th January, has now been recovered, namely in the tourism sector. The Tunisian Revolution is thus highly promising in terms of economic growth as well as social equity and cohesion. 7 Destination Heritage Tunis Dougga I f today Tunisia is a small country, it is great with its three thousand yearold history. It was the heart of the rich empire of Carthage, a prosperous Roman province, and then the cradle of the Arabo-Islamic civilization in the western Mediterranean. Kairouan was a metropolis with considerable influence and Tunis inherited a long cultural tradition which had been moulded throughout the centuries. The result was in the form of numerous ancient remains such as the El Jem amphitheatre, comparable to the Coliseum in Rome, the Dougga site, a veritable African “Pompey” and other monuments emerged from the High Middle Ages such as the Ribats, the Great Mosque of Kairouan, and the ramparts of Sousse. The capital city itself was left with numerous palaces, medersas and mausoleums whose fine sculptured stone decorations can be admired, marble marquetry, polychrome ceramics and chiseled plaster. Bardo Museum 10 Sejnane Tradition A n ancient Berber land, Tunisia is a cross-roads country where numerous influences flowed in. Its handicrafts are the fruit of so many traditions. From moulded pottery to engraved silver, woven mergoums to the finely embroidered wedding outfits, from hammered copper to the chechia (cap) made of red felt, painted wooden coffers to the thick carpets of Kairouan… here you can see a thousand-year-old heritage which was passed on, there an Ottoman tradition and somewhere else an Italian input. 11 Destination Gastronomy A ll kinds of flavours can be found in Tunisia. In town and in the great hotels you will find nowadays great Asian restaurants, tapas bars, not forgetting French and Italian cuisine. Numerous restaurants along the coast will delight you with their sea bass and sea bream, octopus and freshly caught squid. As for Tunisian gastronomy, it has its classical dishes such as couscous with grouper, dishes such as the sweet-savoury “marqa hlouwa”, the famous crunchy egg brik, the “mechouia” salad made of grilled and crushed peppers and the Tunisian tajine which is similar to the Spanish tortilla, without forgetting the fine honey and dried fruit patisserie. 12 Radisson Blu Djerba Hospitality H ospitality in Tunisia is a hundredsyears-old traditional value. Being open to others, enjoying exchanges and human contact, Tunisians willingly learn several languages in order to welcome foreign visitors. Their tradition includes a series of small gestures to please their guests, such as a well-filled basked of sun-kissed fruit, the “machmoum” jasmine bouquet with its heady fragrance, mint tea with sweetmeats and the orange flower water which is sprinkled on the hands of the guests after a good dinner like an invitation to remember the pleasant moments spent together… “My home is your home”, it is often said, a saying which is being applied literally in the new charming hotels and guest houses of which there are so many dozens, from the Tunis medina to the oases of the South. 13 Destination Wellbeing & Thalasso Ulysse Thalasso Odyssée Resort Zarzis E njoy a one-hour massage between expert hands, a hydro-massage bath accompanied by the scents of orange flowers, a traditional clay wrap in the steam of the hammam… Tunisia today is a destination not to be missed, with its spas and thalassotherapy centres with their recognized know-how.

Main towns of the Jerid region (“palm tree country”), situated in a natural corridor linking the extreme south of Morocco with southern Egypt, they once represented major caravan stages at the same time as drawing their wealth from their immense oases of date palms irrigated by dozens of streams. 26 The architecture of the Jerid offers a very unusual aspect and a pleasant atmosphere due to the high walls, the numerous covered passages and the almost exclusive use of palm trunks and golden bricks forming relief patterns – combinations of lozenges and chevrons.
