The Old Quarter is the center of the city, and the streets are divided according to commercial activities. These little streets are always chaotic and full of clumsy scooters.

The best food is the street food, even if you don’t have to be shocked by the non-existent hygiene rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best way to discover this city is to get lost among its narrow streets, stopping from time to time to peek through a little shop and the other, and raising your nose to wonder at the architecture of the old houses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
