Sidi Bou Said

Sidi Bou Said is an impossibly tiny and incredibly gorgeous clifftop town that appears to have fallen off an artist's painting.

For decades, artists have praised this little hamlet, which is today a posh neighborhood of Tunisia's capital. The whitewashed lanes, wrought-iron window frames, and bright blue doors are the epitome of Tunisian village architecture, and the Mediterranean background is the icing on the cake.

Sidi Bou Said is a great location to spend a relaxing afternoon taking up the laid-back ambience and perhaps buying at one of the many local artist and crafts vendors.
