  • We have visited the Medina in Sfax, and unlike many medinas Sfax has a real working one with actual people living in it and not a place for tourism. We were quite surprised to find out that this city, Sfax, in not really on the tourism route in general. It is a very special city with very special people and special food. In this video we also have a good breakfast in the medina, some kefta, some tajine, some other things.. do check it out.

    On the contrary, it is a tourist state, especially hospital tourism and even marine tourism. The largest coastal strip in Tunisia. There is Casino Beach, Taboura Beach, Sidi Mansour Beach, Kerkennah Islands, and Chafar Beach.

    I'm Sfaxian but I live in Tunis, I like your video, there are many other places to visit in Sfax.
    In medina, you can eat a very delicious meat in ABID restaurant, if you like eating fish you can try Elgola restaurant. I also advise you to visit the port of Sfax. I also advise you to visit the Kerkennah archipelago, it is one by plateau you can go in the morning and come back at the end of the afternoon. Enjoy your stay in Sfax

    by the way for the mosques across the country if you do not see a " non muslims do not enter " sign near the entrance you are 100% free to go in and film ( just a couple notes : stay a bit more quieter than usual if ur gonna be commenting on the vlog and it would be preferable if ur wife wears a slight headscarf if she wants to enter ) . as for me personally i'm a muslim i never see the reason why some places prohibit non believers to enter and explore (obviously as long as their not looking to cause trouble ) and i never will . because if you google the quran never prohibits such a thing but on the contrary encourages it

    • @yvesthesleeve
      @yvesthesleeve  Місяць тому

      Many thanks, I do want to enter but some countries do not like it, also in Morocco there are many mosques that do not want foreigners to enter, although they do not even know if I am not Muslim. Good to hear in Tunisia is possible, however can I find a way into Islam if I cannot enter the most holy place? Anyway, if my wife would enter she would sure wear a headscarf, she does often, we also traveled all through Pakistan and she always did.

      @@yvesthesleeve yep exactly that's why its supposed to be encouraged . i mean i entered with my European friends many times and nobody talked to us or even cared tbh . only interaction i remember about the matter even tho it did not happen to us personally i remember watching an american couple vlogging in tunisia and wondering if she they can enter the mosque but then a local Tunisian lady walked to them , explained its fine and lent the female a headscarf so she can enter and helped her put it in so from my experience and knowledge in tunisia its mostly fine . fun fact about the matter in ramadhan for example everyone is invited after iftar to the mosque and treated to milk and dates and sometimes bread ( some places a whole iftar feast )

    The big medinas in Tunisia like Tunis or Sfax have many markets in them, the jewelry section is just 1, in Tunis we call the jewelry section "souk el berka", we have many other sections like chaouachine where they make "chachia" the red traditional hat, we have "souk sabaghine" where they used to tan lather and many others , the medinas are inhabited and have souks in them, that's where Tunisians in those cities lived before french colonisation and the building of the french/italian buildings, medinas used to be very diverse as well, jews, maltese etc had their own neighborhoods as well and for example the medina of Tunis has a tourist path but it's heavily inhabited and has many "non tourist" neighborhood, on google maps you can see it, i don't think Tunisia is the most liberal but what's special in Tunisia that we domt have groups or ethnicities fighting each other, the "tribal" way has been extinct since the 50s, we don't have independently movements or armed militias or elders in towns, the government is above all and Tunisia is one country, i can give you many examples of neighboring countries that do have indepence movements, Lebanon is probably the most liberal but they do have christians, druze and many others , in Tunisia we are all arabs even though many are not descendants, berber is virtually not spoken in Tunisia and is not taught anywhere like algeria or morocco for example, the "arab world" is kind of complex.
