Ariana (Tunisia)

It is the capital of Ariana Governorate and the country's eighth largest city.

Under the Hafsid sultan Muhammad I al-Mustansir, Ariana became the residence of the Sephardi Jews and Muslim Andalusians, who sought refuge in Ifriqiya in the thirteenth century.

It is located in the middle of a vast plain bordered by the beaches of Raoued and Gammarth as well as the city of Carthage and the hill of Sidi Bou Saïd.

Ariana owes its fame to its agricultural development and to its production of flowers, mainly roses.

The garden is extended by the Galerie de la Rose which develops the historical, natural and cultural aspects of the flower.
