Bardo National Museum


Museum was "originally a 13th-century "Hafsid" palace, located in the then-suburbs of Tunis...contains a major collection of Roman mosaics and other antiquities of interest from Ancient Greece, Tunisia, and from the Islamic period. The museum displays objects ranging from prehistorical artifacts to modern jewelry." (Wikipedia)

















 One of the many magnificent domes...

Oh yes. And, of course, Mr. Anas was eager to take a picture with me :)














 I took many many pictures from our visit to this museum, but I hope the ones I've uploaded are enough to make you want to visit this place; I do encourage you to do so. People interested in art would enjoy it. Everything, from the walls, to the roofs, and even to the floor you walk on, is a piece of art!
