Place du Caire

Outdoor cafes shaded by trees and vines offer the perfect places to relax and contemplate the ornate arched doorway and octagonal minaret of the Mosque of Mustapha Hamza, built in 1772 when this square was the centre of the town’s wealthy Turkish quarter. There are also some old Mahdian houses with brightly painted doorways to admire.
