- Sbeitla - Visit Sbeitla, a small town in the west-central region of Tunisia, located 250 km from Tunis. It is known for its remarkable Roman site and its Capitol, composed of not one but three temples, dedicated to Minerva, Jupiter and Juno, the patron gods of Rome. Its gigantic Basilica of Vitalis has a superb baptismal pool, covered in mosaics. In the countryside, the arcades of El Gousset are all that remain of a large 33-metre-long church, reminding us that Tunisia was once a key stronghold for Christians in the West.
