- Zriba Olya ⵣⵔⵉⴱⴰ ⴰⵎⵇⵔⴰⵏ - The ancient village, Zriba Olia (Upper Zriba), of Berber origin, is located about three kilometers south of Hammam Zriba. Built between two rocky peaks, the village now in ruins offers a magnificent view of the Jebel Zaghouan
- Takrouna - A small Berber village of the Sahel region, it is built on a rock culminating at 200 meters above sea level and overlooking a surrounding plain, overlooking the Gulf of Hammamet, Hergla and Sousse to the east, the Jebel Zaghouan to north and the plain of Kairouan to the south.
- Medina of Hammamet - The medina of Hammamet extends over a small space on the southern tip of the city Hammamet. Surrounded by ramparts, the latter are pierced by three entrances. The medina of Hammamet is considered the oldest urban structure in the city, it benefits from a strategic location by the sea. And that is what makes it an original city. Its spatial layout reflects characteristics that govern the Arab-Muslim lifestyle and reflects the inspiration of its culture. The medina is indeed surrounded by a walled enclosure and reinforced by a citadel called “the kasbah” built of high and thick walls containing three gates through which the ancient city communicated with the outside built of a fort built by the Arabs in the 12th Century, as well as towers enclosed in a wall. The fundamental principle of its spatial layout is based on the clear separation between public life and private life.
