• L’aqueduc de Zaghouan - This aqueduct is located 13 miles (22 km) from Tunis. Positioned at an elevation of 984 feet (300 meters) on Jebel Zaghouan, a natural spring emerges from the rock, feeding into the aqueduct at this point. This section later merges with another aqueduct from Jougar. Combined, they extend 76 miles (123 km) to the vast cisterns of Maalga in Carthage.

Start your journey from Tunis and head to the aqueduct, located 13 miles (22 km) away. Perched at an elevation of 984 feet (300 meters) on Jebel Zaghouan, continue to Zaghouan, the historic site where Hamilcar, Hannibal’s father, triumphed over the mercenaries who rebelled against Carthage following the First Punic War. Carthage was defeated by the Romans in 241 B.C. and was compelled to pay a substantial war tribute to Rome. Explore the Temple des Eaux, a once magnificent semi-circular temple situated near the city, over the springs of Zaghouan. It is believed to have been built around the time Emperor Hadrian commissioned the construction of aqueducts to Carthage. The main chamber above the spring was likely dedicated to one of the numerous water deities.

After lunch, enjoy a leisurely walk through Zaghouan’s enchanting old quarter. The narrow streets and architecture reflect the city’s Andalucian influence.
