At 160 km from Tunis and at few kilometers from the city of Jendouba in the north western region of the country, lies the archeological site of Bulla Regia. Its archeological remains spread over more than 60 hectares witness of more than 17 centuries of the history of a city founded by the Numids at the end of the 4th Century b.c.

The site offers thermal baths, a theatre and two storey houses: a ground floor used in winter time and a refuge during the summer heat. But what makes the site’s fame are the patrician palaces decorated by very nice imaged mosaic pavements, and particularly underground levels, still unique in the antic domestic architecture.
