About this experience
The visit of your Medina,
with its white houses, doors and windows painted in all possible shades of blue from turquoise to almost violet, its
tiles and the wrought iron of its grilles, make this small city a prodigy of harmony of volumes and color.
Its sinuous layout on the mountainside contributes to each bend revealing an interesting angle. By Bab El
Jadem, you reach a charming water mill that still works and an old oil mill. A little further south
Find the city's most famous fountain, Ras el Ma, where women do their laundry and visitors and locals hang out.
They cool in their sources. Uta El –Hamman Square, a lively square surrounded by cafes and restaurants
