Tunis is the capital of the Tunisian Republic and also the countries’largest city.Situated on a large Mediterranean gulf, the city extends along the coastal plain and the hills that surround it. The medina is found at the centre of the city: a dense agglomeration of alleys and covered passages, full of intense scents and colours, boisterous and active trade, with a a surfeit of goods on offer.The modern part of the city is transversed by the grand Avenue Bourguiba, considered by many to be the Tunisian Champs-Élysées. Here, the colonial-era buildings provide a clear contrast to smaller older structures. The Avenue ends at the Place du 7 Novembre, a large square dominated by an old clock tower and an impressive fountain arrangement.
