Multifaceted Tunis.. Best reflected through its domes.. in every shape, from every age.. Jump in 💌
.. and we leap into the tiny, cozy laneways of old town Tunis for a closer look at those beautifully aging tile domes.. A composite delight of curves and greenery painted through the lens of Tunisia’s urban explorer Mourad Ben Cheikh Ahmed
Next tableau: A contrast of night and light, austerity and intricacy, embodied by this iconic dome of Zitouna mosque shaped by centuries of refinement in the very heart of Tunisia’s old Tunis, captured by Houssem Korbosli
Steadfast.. Flying silhouettes crossing a millennial skyline: Tunis Medina as never seen before, skillfully pictured at sunset by Hamiddedine Bouali from Tunisia.. Keep zen!
Back to the romantic escape within the city.. a little pyramid dome “guarded” by a grumpy fluffy sentinel.. Don’t escape! A shot by Houssem Korbosli in Tunisia’s central park Belvédère
Yet another pyramidal dome emerging amidst old city Tunis, depicting its Moorish heritage alongside Tunisia’s rare Ottoman influences: Hammouda Pacha mosque unveiled through the lens of Mahdi Jouini
Next hunt: a gem of a dome crowned by enchanted birds.. Somewhere in the modern city next door.. A shot to contemplate and almost feel.. Best captured by Tunis’ urban explorer Mourad Ben Cheikh Ahmed from Tunisia.. Raise your head!
