Belvedere Park

Belvedere Park is a large green space in Tunis with gardens, pathways, a zoo, and many native plants distributed throughout the grounds. The site offers different areas to explore, including museum buildings and animal enclosures.

The park was established in 1892 during the French protectorate as part of urban development to create new green spaces in Tunis. This founding was part of a broader effort to modernize the city with new public areas.

The art museum inside the park displays works by Tunisian and international artists, showing the creative traditions of the region. Visitors can walk through exhibitions and see how artistic expression has developed in this cultural setting.

The park is open most days and offers many pathways for walking and exploring at different paces. Plan enough time since the grounds are large and there are several areas to visit.

The zoo area within the park houses an impressively diverse collection of animals from different habitats and continents. This variety makes a visit especially interesting for nature lovers and families, as there is much to discover about different animal species.
