Description
Zaghouan is a city located in northern Tunisia, approximately 50 kilometers southwest of Tunis, the capital. It sits at the foot of the Djebel Zaghouan mountain, a significant geographical feature that influences the local climate and agriculture. The city is known for its historical significance, particularly during the Roman period, as it was an important site for water supply systems.
The region around Zaghouan is rich in natural resources, including springs and aquifers that provided water to ancient Roman settlements. The most notable structure is the Roman Aqueduct of Zaghouan, also known as the Zaghouan Aqueduct, which was built to transport water from the springs in Zaghouan to Carthage. This engineering marvel exemplifies the advanced technologies of the Roman Empire.
Today, Zaghouan is famed for its picturesque landscapes and traditional Tunisian architecture. The city's historical sites, including the ancient Roman ruins and the remains of the aqueduct, are popular tourist attractions. Additionally, Zaghouan is recognized for its production of several agricultural products, particularly olives and wines.
