Kairouan, Tunisia

Located in the centre of Tunisia, Kairouan is the most ancient Arabo-Muslim base of the Maghreb (670 AD) and one of its principal holy cities. Capital of Ifriqiya for five centuries, its medina comprises juxtaposed dwellings divided into quarters separated by narrow and winding streets

If it looks somewhat familiar, its because Kairouan was used as a filming location for the epic film Raiders of the Lost Ark, standing in for Cairo.
