    Kerkouane - Only Intact Phoenician City

    UNESCO World Heritage Site and the ONLY Phoenician-Punic city that was never rebuilt by the Romans. Abandoned during the First Punic War (~250 BC), its streets, houses, shops, and temples remain exactly as the Carthaginians left them. Remarkably, almost every house has an elaborate bathroom with distinctive 'shoe-shaped' red concrete bathtubs. The nearby necropolis contains intact Punic tombs.
