The Koubba, Tunis, Tunisia
Belvedere Park is the largest park in Tunis, covering 110 hectares. It was established in 1892 on a hill of olive trees, but opened only in 1910 in order to allow enough time for the plants to grow. The park is a popular gathering place for both families and young couples. It is known as the “lungs of Tunis” due to the scarcity of green spaces in the city.
At the centre of the park is a koubba that provides an excellent view of the city of Tunis. According to guide, the koubba is an excellent example of Tunisian architecture.
