As we're nearing the end of our stay in Tunisia I will treat you to a bumper bundle of photos of Chenini, q mind-blowing ancient settlement perched high on a hilltop ridge. It was mainly used as a fortified granary by the local nomads (Berber) but is now very much on the tourist trail.
| A perfect blue set off the fantastic sky-line |
| We visited a troglodyte house... |
| ...with a very opportune mirror in the wall! |
| There wasn't much to eat for the goats... |
| ...and camel |
| Look how many levels this house had! |
| A closer view of the mosque |
| The open desert... |
| ...with the Beber's burial site just below |
| Most of the town is uninhabited now... |
| ...but we found a couple of locals! |
Wow!! Love these old buildings. Great pics as usual. A&B xxx
