  • Sousse or Soussa (Arabic: سوسة, IPA: [ˈsuːsa]) is a city in Tunisia, capital of the Sousse Governorate. Located 140 km (87 mi) south of the capital Tunis, the city has 271,428 inhabitants (2014). Sousse is in the central-east of the country, on the Gulf of Hammamet, which is a part of the Mediterranean Sea. Its economy is based on transport equipment, processed food, olive oil, textiles, and tourism. It is home to the Université de Sousse.
    Listed by UNESCO as an example of World Heritage, the Sousse medina ascends in layers along the hillside, facing the sea. It’s a pleasure to explore the alleyways with an atmosphere of a time long past, haggling in the souks. Dominated by the tall silhouette of the Khalef Tower, the old town has kept its medieval stone walls and numerous monuments that bear witness to its past as a stronghold: the Ribat, small fort and religious retreat, the fortress-like Great Mosque, the imposing Kasbah. Third biggest city in Tunisia, Sousse has a lively town centre with numerous places to shop and entertainment venues, and a superb seafront promenade. A few minutes away, explore the docks of the marina in Port El Kantaoui. Breathe in the air of the surrounding countryside: around the city can be found fields, villages and especially the vast olive groves that have given the region its wealth since ancient times.
