Tunesien - Mahdia - El Djem Amphitheater

Peter Menzel (PMMedia1): Music by Michael Donner
Das Hotel Mahdia Beach ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für einen Ausflug nach El Djem mit dem berühmten Amphitheater aus römischer Zeit. Wir mieten ein Auto mit einem ortskundigen Chauffeur, der uns zum 50 km entfernt liegenden El Djem bringen wird. Das imposante Amphitheater von El Djem gehörte zu den größten des römischen Imperiums und ist annähernd so groß wie das Kolosseum in Rom. Auf den Zuschauerrängen konnten 35 000 Zuschauer Platz nehmen und die Kämpfe der Gladiatoren beobachten. Die imposanten Rundbögen der Arena sind ein typisches Architekturmerkmal römischer Baukunst und ermöglichten es, mehrere Stockwerke übereinander zu bauen. In El Djem befindet sich auch ein Museum, das archäologische Ausgrabungen und Fundstücke aus römischer Zeit präsentiert. Gezeigt werden vor allem Fußbodenbeläge, die kunstvoll mit Mosaiksteinen gestaltet sind. Das Amphitheater von El Djem wurde im Jahre 230 nach Christus erbaut und 1979 von der UNESCO zum Weltkulturerbe erklärt.

Tourists finally feel safe enough to come back to Tunisia

(20 Jul 2018) LEADIN:
After a number of extremist attacks a few years ago, Tunisia is finally seeing a rise in tourism again.
Thanks to heavy security in hotels and resorts, people feel safe enough to venture to the North African country.
STORYLINE:
With binoculars and a walkie-talkie in hand, this security guard is tasked with one mission - keeping tourists safe.
Security and police have become a regular sight on the beaches and resorts of Tunisia.
In 2015, the country suffered two armed attacks, one on a beach in Sousse that killed 39 tourists, and another at the Bardo National Museum in Tunis, which killed 21 people.
But three years later, people are starting to feel safe again thanks to the conspicuous presence of security.
The security has been fantastic. Checkpoints everywhere. You sit on the beach and the guys come past on the horses and they're watching you, security at either end of the beach, it has been fantastic, says one British tourist.
The UK government lifted the ban on tourists travelling to Tunisia allowing travel agents to re-activate their reservations in early 2018.
Another British tourist, Danny, says he wanted to visit Tunisia a few years ago.
They finally came this year, once reservations opened up again, attracted by the look of the place and the cheap price.
And he's not the only one - the Tunisia tourism board expects eight million visitors this year.
Numbers are already drastically different from the year before.
Tourism revenues have risen 40 percent in the first half of this year compared with the same period last year.
But it is only those resorts which can show clear security measures in place which are used by the British travel agents.
Families relax by the pool, carefree in the knowledge that they are being looked after.
Security cameras are dotted throughout the complex and all feed into a central surveillance room.
Here, the hotel manager Nizar Bou Karaya can keep an eye on everything.
Karaya can also see an improvement across the country.
There are people who want to help the country be better. This is seen. We can see security 24 hours a day. The security patrols are day and night. Security guards on horses are always on the beaches. There are police agents on the quads. Tourist security agents are doing their duties. They are always present.
As well as security cameras, the resort also uses metal detectors at the entrance - with each vehicle stopped before entering.
A sign asks for people's patience with the new procedures.
And the new security measures certainly haven't gone unnoticed by guests.
French tourist Claudia says there is security everywhere.
Police men passing every two minutes. Even in the hotel there are people who keep watching us.
For the Tunisian tourism industry, it is only a good thing.
The number of tourists increased by 26 percent in the first half of this year and the number of Algerian tourists continued to grow by about 18 percent.
Jaber Ben Attouch, President of the Tunisian Federation of Travel Agencies, credits the rise to the improved security.
If there is trust in the tourism destination, there is a bigger turnout to it. Tourism in Tunisia is related to security and safety. I think that tourism has now reached the safety needed, he explains.
This is why tourists are back in Tunisia. Security guards and the Ministry of Interior are doing a great job. There is trust between the Tunisian citizen, the Ministry of Interior and the foreign tourist.

Travel to Tunisia 08. Museum of Tunis. Part 1

Bardo Museum in Tunis, Tunisia

Bardo Museum in Tunis, Tunisia
The Bardo National Museum is a museum of Tunis, Tunisia, located in the suburbs of Le Bardo.

It is one of the most important museums in the Mediterranean region and the second museum of the African continent after the Egyptian Museum of Cairo by richness of its collections. It traces the history of Tunisia over several millennia and across several civilizations through a wide variety of archaeological pieces.

Housed in an old beylical palace since 1888, it offers a prestigious and magnificent setting for the exhibition of many major works discovered since the beginning of archaeological research in the country. Originally called Alaoui Museum , named after the reigning bey at the time, it takes its current name of Bardo Museum after the independence of the country even if the denomination is attested before that date.

The museum houses one of the finest and largest collections of Roman mosaics in the world, thanks to the excavations at the beginning of 20th century in various archaeological sites in the country including Carthage, Hadrumetum, Dougga and Utica. Some of the displayed works have no equivalent, such as the Virgil Mosaic. Generally, the mosaics of Bardo represent a unique source for research on everyday life in Roman Africa. From the Roman era, the museum also contains a rich collection of marble statues representing the deities and the Roman emperors found on different sites including those of Carthage and Thuburbo Majus.

The museum also has some rich pieces discovered during the excavations of Libyco-Punic sites including mainly Carthage, although the National Museum of Carthage has the vocation to be the museum of this major archaeological site. The essential pieces of this department are grimacing masks, terracotta statues and stelae of major interest for Semitic epigraphy, the stele of the priest and the child being the most famous. The museum also houses Greek works discovered especially in the excavations of the shipwreck of Mahdia, whose emblematic piece remains the bust of Aphrodite in marble, gnawed by the sea and yet still of a moving beauty.

The Islamic Department contains, in addition to famous works such as the Blue Qur'an of Kairouan, a collection of ceramics from the Maghreb and Anatolia.

In order to increase the reception capacity and optimize the presentation of the collections, the museum is the subject of a vast operation which was to be completed initially in 2011 but was not finished until 2012 due to the Tunisian Revolution. The work concerns the increase of the exhibition surfaces by adding new buildings and redeploying the collections. The project aims to make the museum a major pole for a quality cultural development, so that the visitor can appreciate the artistic pieces deposited.

On March 18, 2015, an Islamist terrorist group attacked the museum and took tourists hostage in the building. The attack, which killed 22 people including 21 foreign tourists, was claimed by ISIS.

The Bardo National Museum building was originally a 15th-century Hafsid palace, located in the suburbs of Tunis.

The Bardo is one of the most important museums of the Mediterranean basin, and the second largest on the African continent after the Egyptian Museum. It traces the history of Tunisia over several millennia and through many civilizations through a wide variety of archaeological pieces. Being in the former palace, it offers many major works discovered since the beginnings of archaeological research in the country. Originally called Museum Alaoui , the name of the reigning bey at the time, it has had its current name of Museum of Bardo only since the country's independence.

In addition to famous works such as the Blue Koran of Kairouan, the Islamic Department contains a collection of ceramics from North Africa and Asia Minor.

The Bardo brings together one of the finest and largest collections of Roman mosaics in the world thanks to the excavations undertaken from the beginning of the 20th century on archaeological sites in the country including Carthage, Hadrumetum, Dougga, or Utica. The mosaics represent a unique source for research on everyday life in Roman Africa. The Museum also contains a rich collection of marble statues representing the gods and Roman emperors found on various sites including those of Carthage and Thuburbo Majus.

Viaggio in cabina da Tunisi a Sousse

Un riassunto delle tre ore di viaggio necessarie a percorrere la tratta ferroviaria da Tunisi a Sousse.
A bordo della locomotiva Diesel GM - GT18 da 72 tonnellate 91 91 0 000552-0.
In compagnia dei simpaticissimi macchinisti che mi hanno concesso di condividere la stretta e angusta cabina e... in compagnia dei forti e costanti rumori di lamiere scosse dalle poderose vibrazioni dei motori!!
Vi assicuro che la locomotiva sobbalzava e vibrava veramente tanto sia per i motori che per la qualità e stato dell'armamento.
La quantità di vibrazioni e il rombo dei motori mostrano lo sforzo che questa locomotiva compie per guadagnare velocità sulle modeste rampe della linea.
