  • Then visit a menzel. The Djerbien menzel is a traditional house on the island of Djerba in Tunisia. It is a typical dwelling, often built with local materials such as stone, plaster, and brick, with flat roofs and whitewashed walls. The menzel is distinguished by its central courtyard, around which the living rooms are arranged. These houses are designed to adapt to the island's climatic conditions, offering cool spaces in summer and protection from the wind.
