Belvedere Park : info and guided tour

Overview of Belvedere Park

Belvedere Park is one of Tunis’ major green spaces, set on a hill overlooking part of the city. Known for its shaded paths and viewpoints, it offers a pleasant place to walk for both locals and visitors. Its location on Avenue Taieb Mhiri makes it easy to find.

The park is part of the modern urban history of Tunis, created as a place for relaxation and fresh air in the heart of the capital. Its sloping terrain, planted areas and winding paths create an atmosphere that feels different from the dense urban fabric around it. This setting gives the site a character that is both natural and closely tied to the city.

Belvedere is especially famous for its panoramic views and for the Tunis Zoo, located within its grounds, which has long attracted families. The site combines walking paths, landscaped areas and wildlife discovery. This mix is what makes the park an iconic urban attraction, at the crossroads of leisure and scenery.

Visitors also come for its tall trees, open vistas and the belvederes that give the park its name. The site is less defined by a single monument than by the ensemble it forms: a lively, open hill park where Tunis’ topography can be read in the panorama. It is a simple space, but one that is strongly associated with the city.
