It is one of the oldest and most beautiful mosques in the world, one of the most impressive monuments in all of the Maghreb! Its religious prestige makes Kairouan the 4th holy city of Islam.

They open onto the prayer rooms, adorned with dozens of marble columns.

Excellent trip with Yahya and driver Osama.
They both were very nice and kind. Yahya provided a lot of good insights into Kairouan history and interesting facts about the water basin and rabats. El Jem will remind you of Collessium in Rome. Very similar but different kind of stone.
We left at 8 AM and came back at 5 PM.
