Guide to Monastir

map
An ancient city on the central coast of Tunisia, this once-quiet fishing port is now a major destination for tourists. It has a total population of 41,000 inhabitants. The skyline is dynamised by the ruin of a RIbat, a small fortification, which was once used as a defence against hostile invaders coming from the nearby sea. It also featured in the Monty Python film Life of Brian. Don't miss the huge Mausoleum of Bourguiba, and the bargains to be found in its small Medina.
