Ichkeul Natioal Park,Tunisia.

Lake Ichkeul is the last great freshwater lake of a chain that once stretched the length of North Africa.  Characterised by a very specific hydrological functioning based on a double seasonal alternance of water levels and salinity, the lake and the surrounding marshes constitute an indispensable stop-over for the hundreds of thousands of migratory birds such as ducks, geese, storks and pink flamingos, who come to feed and nest there in winter at Ichkeul.

2018 Stamp- The 70th Anniversary of Tunisian Airlines TUNISAIR

#683 Medina of Tunis,Tunisia.

Located in a fertile plain region of north-eastern Tunisia, and a few kilometres from the sea, the Medina of Tunis is one of the first Arabo-Muslim towns of the Maghreb (698 A.D.). Capital of several universally influential dynasties, it represents a human settlement that bears witness to the interaction between architecture, urbanism and the effects of socio-cultural and economic changes of earlier cultures. Under the Almohads and the Hafsids, from the 12th to the 16th century, Tunis was considered one of the greatest and wealthiest cities in the Arab world.

2017 Stamp- Archeological Sites and Monuments of Tunisia

Archaeological Site of Carthage,Tunisia.

Carthage was founded in the 9th century B.C. on the Gulf of Tunis. From the 6th century onward, it developed into a great trading empire covering much of the Mediterranean and was home to a brilliant civilization. In the course of the long Punic wars, Carthage occupied territories belonging to Rome, which finally destroyed its rival in 146 B.C. A second – Roman – Carthage was then established on the ruins of the first.

2016 Stamp- Sfax - Capital of Arab Culture 2016.

Dougga / Thugga,Tunisia.

Before the Roman annexation of Numidia, the town of Thugga, built on an elevated site overlooking a fertile plain, was the capital of an important Libyco-Punic state. It flourished under Roman and Byzantine rule, but declined in the Islamic period. The impressive ruins that are visible today give some idea of the resources of a small Roman town on the fringes of the empire.Thanking  you Mohmed Elloumi for sending this card once again as the earlier one might have been lost in transit and was surprised to see the card in my mailbox..
