Vincent Poon :: El Jem Museum
 
When visiting El Jem, most people would only go to see the amphitheatre. This is a real shame as the museum nearby is home to Tunisia's most outstanding mosaic collection. It may not be as big as that in the Bardo but the mosaics' vlvidness and pristine conditions definitely outdo those in the capital.
