Roam the streets of Mahdia's Old Town, the historic and traditional town center. Enter the medina through the gates of the Skifa Kahla, a 10th-century fortress, for the most atmospheric start to your adventure. Artisans proudly display a wide selection of handicrafts in the main squares and covered markets of the district, selling traditional garments, hand-knotted carpets, and antique jewelry. Pay a visit to one of the local museums to learn the history of the neighborhood, or take a tour of a traditional home to discover more about daily life in the medina.
