La Goulette stretches along a narrow sandbar between Lake Tunis and the Mediterranean, connected to central Tunis by the TGM commuter rail. This unpretentious port town thrives on simple pleasures: the kilometre-long seaside promenade lined with cafés where locals play backgammon over mint tea, and family-run restaurants serving just-caught seafood. While short on conventional sights, its charm lies in the rhythm of dockworkers, fishermen, and evening strollers who animate the waterfront. The ferry terminal links Tunisia to Europe, lending the harbour constant movement. Come for grilled octopus at plastic-covered tables as tankers glide past, or join the evening passeggiata when the sea breeze tempers the day’s heat.

The North Africa American Cemetery and Memorial honours 2,841 WWII soldiers who fell during the often-overlooked North African campaign.

The chapel and memorial court feature mosaic maps detailing American military operations across Africa to the Persian Gulf. Their design blends seamlessly with local architecture, creating a space of quiet reflection.

The magnificent statues of dragons, which are the symbol of Ljubljana, are one of the main attractions of the city. The Dragon Bridge was constructed between 1900 and 1901 and was dedicated to the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I. It is considered a masterpiece of Secession architecture. Also, when completed, it was one of the first reinforced concrete bridges of contemporary Europe.

Through the Verwall Valley, the tranquil setting of the Verwall valley is perfect for taking a leisurely sleigh ride. An excellent way for non-skiers to take in the sights and skiers to have a break from the slopes.
