Hi Doug you re doing great videos if you would like to come to Gabes i can drive you to matmata where you can see troglodyte houses of the imazighen civilization
ok

Hi your videos are amazing

It is mind-blowing that a such historic and ancient place is deserted. Tunisia has all what it takes to be amongst the best international touristic destination. Everyone should visit it.
As a Tunisian I can confirm that. There are al lot of places to visit, and glad you liked it !
Merci

هو ليس مهجورا بل ترك على حاله لقيمته التاريخيه صديقي وهو قبلة سياحيه من جميع أنحاء العالم وتقام فيه بعض الاحتفالات والتظاهرات الثقافيه وهو بمدينة الجم المعروفه بكثرة معاملها في مجال النسيج منذ عقود..... 👍
Same thing for your country. You have a whole Roman city that needs to be prepared and become the focus of the world's harm. Tunisia and Algeria followed Roman and had a lot of relics. But our successive governments don't give it a significance.
Love and respect and support Tunisia from Pakistan 🙂🇵🇰🇹🇳
I just visited that place last week and still feel emotional. Beautiful places, these colosseum is amazing but the Tunisian people… is in another level…! Un saludo desde Mèxico a mis amigos de Tunez!
The Tunisian people is a friendly people.
What you mean?😒
You are more than welcome to come back anytime to our beautiful country

You were on he verge of insulting and then you choose to say a brief good word later,, not nice

Man, you navigated the Louage situation like a boss! It would trip any Tunisian who is not familiar with that exact area that you are going to, so you handled it perfectly.
haha thanks a lot!!! surprised to hear that! 😁

Epic content Doug, your vlogs are one of the best vlogs i've ever seen in RUclips about Tunisia ! If you want to feel some summer vibes since it's getting very hot these days then make sure to visit Kélibia and El Haouaria. One of the most visited places during the summer season
Thanks a lot man!!
@@doug_barnard And Djerba island too, u'll love it! Also, good luck , i love your vlogs!
Dude I live in El Haouaria XD
@@doug_barnard You should go to Mahdia Coast too
Love Tunisia From Italy 🇮🇹♥️🇹🇳
Same bro I love ur history
You should really visit el Jem during it’s classical music festival. The colosseum at night with all the lights is just breathtaking and listening to beautiful symphonies in that historic monument gives you an out of this world feeling. Thank you for giving such beautiful image on our small and yet beautiful and historically rich country. Next time don’t hesitate to seek help from the locals beforehand they will give you all the right tips and show you the best places. Peace and love from Tunisia 🇹🇳
Omg! I've been following you for a while. If I knew you were coming, I would've loved to welcome you in Eljem! I hope you had a great time here 😊
thanks a lot man! next time!!
@@doug_barnard You're more than welcome 🙏 what you're doing is much appreciated ❤️ Please come back in the future and let's meet up! There's yet so much to discover in Tunisia 🇹🇳 my recommendation would be the Medina of Sfax, Zaghouan and Djerba 😉

Merci Mohamed 👏
It's actually one of the largest and best-preserved Roman Amphitheatre ever built.. Thanks for visiting and showcasing such monument!
Welcome to our Tunisia 🇹🇳 Thank you for showing the pretty image of our country , the drone shots are stunning !! I feel so happy when I see people coming and enjoying their journey in it especially that it has all the features to be one of the most visited countries in the world . So sad that this is the last vlog next time you should definitely visit Al houwaria/ dogga / Djerba and Ain draham 😊
Here some answers to your questions:
*The guy heading next to you in the station is working based on commission every passenger he brings; he will get a commission on the sold ticket, it is weird I agree.
*The louage stops in a small town called Swassi which is in Sousse province, the name is quite similar to Sousse.
*The rooms in the colosseum are cages where animals and gladiators are kept,
It is great that you have been able to go to the top of the colosseum it was closed until recently. Also, the view with drones is amazing, happy you have been able to use it because is not allowed unless authorization; I suppose.
Swassi : town in the province of mahdiya near El jam ☺️
and the guy outside the station is a louage driver who don't respect the rules and want to find places before the ones who is waiting inside
We dont do that at tunisia sorry dude but u r wrong , tunisian are more believing in sufism , and one of the sufia morals is to help everyone who need help
@@mohamedazizelkamel9714 wut.
What is beautiful in Tunisia is the contract. from north to south, the landscape changes completely, from beach and forest to desert and sand dunes. To the north, Bizerte, Béja, Tabarka and Ain Drahem are fantastic, breathtaking landscapes. Further south, Sousse, Monastir, Mahdia with the catacombs, el Jem .... Further south, the desert and the Berber sites and the waterfalls of Chebika and Tamerza. Many thanks for you Doug. Every time I see your videos, I realize that Tunisia is more beautiful than it looks.
Nothing beats exploring ancient architect! Especially somewhat undiscovered, great stuff as always my man 🤘🤘
thanks a lot dude, i appreciate it!!
@@doug_barnard why you didn't visit klibia and hawariya,
Also hammam El ghzez , it had the 3rd best beach in the world ,
Anyways good job bro
🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳

An amazing place to visit .. we walked from bottom to top and it was just breathtaking.. worth a visit ..amazing views from the top
Just found (started following), I didn't realise how safe Tunisia looks, as I want to take my wife over for my B/Day and see the sights. Thanks for sharing and great editing and drone footage. Great! 🙏
thanks a lot for watching!
I absolutely love and am hooked to this Tunisia series, and I'm from Tunisia haha Super well done Doug! Happy you're enjoying your stay and your adventure here ✨
Thanks so much Maryam!!
Just been there today! Loved it too!
Amazing these places are still standing. Appreciate you showing these Places!
Hey bro you r such a gentel and polite man so humble and confident.hope you enjoyed the trip and create a good memories with our beautiful tunisia. God bless you and Have a good life.
I randomly got your Tunis video in my suggestions and I've been hooked on the Tunisia series ever since, it was an instant subscribe! It's really cool to see what foreigners think of Tunisia. I loved all the videos and I honestly admire your ability to get around in here so easily without being able to speak Arabic or French. I hope you can come back soon and explore more of the capital and the rest of Tunisia. You've gotta visit Carthage next time! I hope you enjoyed your time here and hopefully you found some good food in El Jem after you finished filming!
We don’t speak Arabic in Tunisia
We speak Tunisian Derja
Arabic is in 🕋
@@Tenast_ أنا تونسية و نحكي دارجة كيفي كيفك. I was saying if Doug could speak Arabic it would've been easier for him to communicate with people here in Tunisia. And they don't speak Arabic in Saudi Arabia either, they speak Saudi dialect.
Thank you so much for supporting!!! Yes I definitely need to head back for round 2 some time... seriously so much left to see haha
@@doug_barnard absolutely! Glad you enjoyed it and you're thinking about coming back here! I'd love to watch more videos

Fair Enough.
Well done for saying that you’re Tunisian 👍
We should be proud of our Tunisian Derja and our history which dates back to almost 12 thousands years.
I have a friend and classmate from Tunisia. He comes from El Jem (El Djem). Such a beautiful city
The drone shots were incredible.
Thank you for visiting us, you're welcome to come again always.
I really felt so bad when you said that's the last video at 14:50 .
I wish you enjoyed staying here and thanks for this series ❤️❤️
thank you so much for the support!
@@doug_barnard
You visited Tabarka ????
@@doug_barnard you still didn't visit Bizerte and a lot of places
There are many beautiful places in Tunisia that needs to discover .. Tunisia in my opinion is the best country in all world and tunisians peoples are very sympathic , cool, and especialy cultivated u can ask about history of everything you saw and you will find it wonderful ..
well done in Louage station, not easy even for tunisian!!
I'm Tunisian, and seeing a non Tunisian try to live in this country without prior experience and a language barrier is fascinating
Cool vids keep it up
Im going in about 3 weeks cant wait.
Thank you for your visit and promoting our beautiful country! ❤️
Bro hats off for always finding original places to visit, really enjoying this Tunisian season ❤️👊🏽

This was brilliant! Thank you for sharing. I'm so glad you got the opportunity to visit such an evocative location and experience the wonder without having to tune out the rabble of hundreds of tourists.
Always a pleasure to see your videos❤️ it is not just a regular content about beautiful places to see, but also very informative to anyone who wants to know more about the culture, people and history🙏And as a Tunisian living abroad, with a continuous homesickness feeling, your videos takes me always back to my childhood memories, freinds and family…. Thanks a ton and much love❤️
What an incredible site!! Love watching you figure out how to actually get there. Also the drone footage is, yet again, fantastic. Your skills there are tops. I kept trying to find you while the drone was up...you hid well!! :)
Hahah thank you, that's cause I was paranoid and flew it from my hotel window about a mile away after I left the coliseum
@@doug_barnard hahahaha. Smart move!
In 2019, i’ve been to el jem’s coliseum and i was like fascinated by how roman architecture is overwhelmed by its own greatness and especially when some local citizens there they told that a lot of gladiator’s movie sequences were filmed in this unesco world heritage site ! ( ps: you can even notice that my profile picture has been taken there ! ) 🇩🇿❤️🇹🇳
Hello from California! 👋
Thank you for filming and exploring my small/beautiful country ❤️
Thank you for showing our culture and history.

I visited El Jem in November of 2021. Loved it! They say it was even better before WW2, but it got bombed a bit :P
Yeah, the French were jealous so they had to leave a trace behind them lol.
Wow your brave to go in that Louage .. I see them driving past me on the highways to Sousse. Lovely video again
. I will definitely go to this place in the summer.
I am tunisian and i would've started crying if I took the wrong louage lol Props to you honestly, you handled everything so well. It sometimes can be overwhelming even to us!!

By the way, when you come back, you definitely should visit Touzer and the Ksar Ghilane Oasis, there a small old Roman fort in the middle of the desert which used to guard the southern frontier of the empire back then, such an amazing scene and place.

Wow! This is impressive! Never heard before or see this beautiful, preserved Roman coliseum inside in Tunisia! I think this is much more Beautiful than those Coliseum itself in Rome. I'm thinking Maximus maybe played in this Coliseum..🤔😅😅
Yes eljem in tunisia is the most protected colisium in the world...
A lot of movies were filmed here in eljem tunisia as gladiator.... Maximus.... Many others... As star wars is filmed in tunisia also in our sahara ong ejmal
@@raniaabidi7380 Yeah. I heard about that Star wars film locations in the desert of Tunisia even before. But, wow.. this Beautiful Roman coliseum in the heart of Tunisia is first time I've see or known. I've thinking only of ruins Buildings. But this one is fully preserved! And It's like that youre Blasting to the past. It's like you'll see those Africanus villain gladiators riding their Chariots against Maximus (Russel crowe). Haha. Hope i can visit Tunisia someday. I already heard and see about your beautiful Mediterranean beaches, but this Coliseum in Northern Africa is first time for me.
@@jamesguy3428 i read one time in history that the people of tysidrus which is actually lly Mahdia eljem... Were frustraterd from romains impreals because they care only about rome and they get jealous because of their colisium so it was a big revolution in whole country asking more infrastructure involvement so they get their own colisium with less mistakes maded in rome. 💓🇹🇳... But i really hope our goverment take care about houses and little cities surrounding el colisium and replace them with pelouse and beautiful romain historical heritage
@@jamesguy3428 there is a good meusum next to el jem collisium and a totally romain house
Thank you i come here after i read some of thousands of compliments from Tunisian people on facebook written in arabic about your reports about Tunisia.,they all said you did a great job.
In the state of Mahdia in Tunisia, and in the coastal city of El Jem, which was called in antiquity (thysdrus), one of the greatest Roman ruins in Africa still stands. It is the great Roman theater famous for the El-Jem Palace (or El-Jem Amphitheater), which was built more than 1800 years ago, and despite this, it still receives peaceful human artistic performances and festivals, and not as it was at the time of its establishment as a theater for bloody shows, wrestling shows and slave fights.
Most of the accounts about its construction suggest that the Roman Emperor, Gordian II, ordered its construction in 238 AD to be a great Roman theater comparable to its counterpart in the imperial capital in Rome. Beyond beauty and splendor. In their work, the designers addressed all the engineering errors that occurred in the construction of the largest and earlier Roman amphitheater. Therefore, El Jem amphitheater remained in the eyes of archaeologists and historians a first-class architectural and artistic work, testifying to the sophistication of this city. Over the ages, the amphitheater has been the scene of great historical events, as many events that marked turning points in human history took place.
The area of the palace, which has a high Roman facade, is 148 meters by 122 meters, and the dimensions of the arena are 65 meters by 39 meters, and its runways could accommodate about 35,000 spectators. Thus, it is one of the largest theaters in the world, as it participates in the list of great theaters such as the Colosseum of Rome, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Capua Theater, and the Pozzuoli Theater. It was inscribed by UNESCO on the list of World Heritage Sites in 1979.
This huge master has seen several battles. Sources indicate that "during the Islamic conquest of Africa at the beginning of the eighth century AD, the Berber queen "Dhamia", nicknamed the priestess, took refuge with her army for four years after her defeat in the second battle against the leader Hassan Ibn al-Nu'man. In 1695, the western side of the palace was demolished by order of the Bey (king) of Tunis so that no one else would be holed up there in the future . After the inhabitants took this landmark as a fortress in their revolt against the rule of the Bey at that time."
Thus, the calamities of time descended on this huge palace, and it did not withstand much against the force of nature and the nature of wars. It was a sign of the greatness of human ambition, and it became a victim of human violence over time. The palace was also not spared from looting and the theft of its contents, mosaics, inscriptions and marble over the past centuries, as it was abound with rare antiquities that were later transferred to the Archaeological Museum in El-Jem. Mosaic floors, whose drawings reflect the daily life and economic lifestyle of Rome's residents, have also been moved towards national museums.
And when this landmark has befallen, it has been sustained over the past century by some care and preservation of what remains of it. Some historical photographs in 1900 show that the theater of El Jem was neglected and its lower part was covered by a heap of dust that concealed the shape it is in today.
The theater is still largely in its original form, as it has enjoyed maintenance in several periods of history, had it not been for some events that prompted the demolition of some of its sides, when the amphitheater was used as a fortress to shelter in, and its stands are not in their first condition. There are many rooms and cellars in the theater, and it is said that there are long basements that connect the palace to distant areas, but they have not been discovered yet.
Beneath the stage were two galleries, accessed by light from the middle opening of the arena, and two apertures on either side of the arena whose function was to raise slain beasts, such as lions and leopards, and gladiators of prisoners of war, who were deposited in chambers under the arena; To be released on feasts and huge occasions that witness a huge turnout of the people under the auspices of the nobles and gamblers who sit in the runways to watch the battles of monsters and the battles of gladiators from prisoners of war and chariot races.
Most of the antiquities found in the theater area and around the old city, which are many, were transferred to the El Jem Museum, which was also erected on the site of a Roman house.
Thank you👌👍💗💐
