As usual there are souvenir stores just outside the museum
|
| Next to the museum is St. Louis Cathedral
|
| The Cathedral was built in 1890 by Cardinal Lavigenie. It was dedicated to French King Louis IX who died while laying siege to Carthage
|
| It is no longer served as place of worship but is used for exhibitions that needs me to pay to go in. So I just took a peek of the basement from above

More viscious guardians - these were guarding the cathedral
|
| Outside the museum, at the top of Brysa Hill you have a clear view of Carthage as well as the Gulf of Tunis
|
| You could also see foundations of Punic houses unearthed at the top of Byrsa Hill

On the way down we found a wall with a map of all the sites in Carthage - handy!
|
| Our next stop was the site of Antonine Baths
|
| As you can see, the site is massive. The baths are only part of it and is shown on the right (the red area)
|
| Tomb in the Punic Necropolis, one of the many sites in the complex
