The Bardo Museum is located about 4 km from the Tunis city center, in the suburb of Bardo. It occupies the former Bardo Palace, official residence of the Husseinite beys. The present palace was built at the end of the 17th century and became a museum in 1888.

I was not astonished merely with the mosaic & how well they are preserved. I was fascinated with the ceilings. Moving from one room to another takes you from one style of ceiling to another. All beautiful. Why now we have only plain ceilings!
Generally speaking, I guess we stopped building artistic buildings!
