Sfax

Sfax, strategically located on the eastern coast of Tunisia, is the country's second largest city known for its robust economic activity in industries such as fishing, oil refining, and phosphate production. Its unique blend of historic and contemporary allure captivates its visitors. The city offers its guests a striking contrast between the traditional charm of the medina, brimming with ancient architecture, thriving souks, and traditional homes, and the modern aspect characterized by bustling businesses and contemporary buildings. The city's reputation also extends to its gastronomy, producing some of the finest olive oils in the country, and the distinctive University of Sfax, renowned in fields of computer sciences and economics.

I was doing a volunteer project for 6 weeks in Sfax. I actually felt safe. People were nice, and I wasn't scammed much, especially compared to more touristic cities in Tunesia. If you want to do a trip around Tunesia it is not really worth it but I  can absolutely recommend the Medina in Sfax, it is very beautiful and very cheap.
