Nefta Holiday Accommodation

 

 

Nefta The Sidi Bou Ali oasis is still today an important pilgrimage site (particularly on the third day of Aid el Kebir); with its marabout and its twenty four Khotba mosques, it constitutes an important religious pole, perhaps second to Kairouan Irrigated by 152 streams, some of which form a single stream at the bottom of the basin denominated the "corbeille of Nefta" and from which one can enjoy a splendid view of the palm trees.

Nefta represents a real miracle — the miracle of water. It seems that Sidi Ali, who came from Morocco in the 12th century, brought with him from Toughourt date seeds that he planted — this constitutes the second miracle: the quality deglet en-nour, delicate and transparent golden dates having an exquisite taste. Today, the palms cover over 300 hectares and are the wealth of the inhabitants as well as the dignified representatives of all of Tunisia. The third miracle is that of tourism, favoured by the creation of a large international airport and the construction of large hotels.
