A tour of BIZERTE, Tunisia - The northernmost city in Africa بنزرت تونس

Hi everyone! This is episode nine of my Tunisia series in which I visit Bizerte, the northernmost city not just in Tunisia but in continental Africa. It is located approximately 15 kilometres from the northernmost point in Africa, Cape Angela or Ras Angela as it is known in Arabic (the northernmost tip is known as Ras Ben Sakka).

The vlog stars off with me walking through the city centre through several local markets towards the port area of Bizerte. I immediately notice a lot of activity in the city with approximately 140,000 people, but noticeably lower noise levels than in places such as Tunis. This is indicative of the slower pace of life in this part of the world which is less touristy than other parts of Tunisia.

A local man then shows me directions to the port area and I walk past some graffiti and city art showing scenes of Bizerte as a coastal town and random colourful images. I then enter the port and is immediately struck by a giant boat or ship as well as the different colours of buildings which gives it an almost Venice-esque touch.

I then stroll around the harbour area and explore the walkway next to the fortified wall, after which I walk towards the other side and see several markets selling anything from household goods to cigarettes to - of course - shoes. I am struck by the amount of fruit and vegetables for sale and visit a large indoor fruit and vegetable market.

After visiting the markets, I walk back to the port area for one last time and then find my way to the louage station with the help of another local man.
