The Medina of Monastir centers around the renowned Ribat of Monastir, underscoring the city’s historic role as a strategic coastal stronghold. The Medina of Mahdia stretches along a narrow peninsula, with winding streets, artisan shops, and sea views from its ancient walls, nearby cliffside marine cemetery, and the ancient Punic harbor. The Medina of Sfax is fully enclosed by impressive 9th–14th-century ramparts and is renowned for its Great Mosque and authentic everyday urban life. Hammamet's picturesque Old Medina is a whitewashed labyrinth of narrow alleys and ancient fortifications by the sea, with charming souks and panoramic Mediterranean views from its 15th-century walls. One of Islam’s holiest cities and a UNESCO World Heritage site, Kairouan’s Medina preserves a classic medieval Arab-Muslim urban layout, with winding streets, the monumental Great Mosque, and numerous other historic mosques.
