Kasbah Square, a monumental plaza at the entrance to Medina, holds deep significance in Tunisia’s history. Once the site of a fortified citadel (demolished post-independence), it now anchors administrative buildings like Tunis City Hall and the National Monument — a memorial to pivotal national events. Facing the iconic Kasbah Mosque, the square blends tradition and modernity with its red Tunisian flags and iconic black lanterns. Since 2011, it has also become a gathering place for political demonstrations, including historic sit-ins demanding government reform.

Dubbed the "home of American coffee culture," Portland knows what it takes to brew the perfect cup. In a 2016 survey of 100 U.S. cities, Portland topped the list, boasting the most coffee roasters per capita and the highest number of cafés. With so many spots to enjoy a great cup of coffee, you might think there's little room for discovery — but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Portland’s coffee scene continues to evolve, with unique additions like Oracle Coffee Company, run by Andy Hurley, the drummer of Fall Out Boy and a self-described "vegan straight-edge anarchist." The choices are endless, but for a glimpse of where it all began, visit the original Stumptown Coffee Roasters location at 4525 Southeast Division Street. Many credit this tiny space with launching Portland’s rise to coffee fame, now a chain with outlets from New York to LA.
