Zaghwan (or Zaghouan; Tunisian Arabic: زغوان Zaġwān) is a town in the northern half of Tunisia. Situated on a low ridge of the Dorsale Mountains, the town has a mild climate and presents a green aspect. Cold water from here was taken by aqueduct to Carthage.

On the mountain south of the city is the Roman Water Temple Djebel Zaghouan (Temple de Eaux), source of an aqueduct which used to take water to the city of Carthage over 100 km away.

Zaghouan est une ville du nord-est de la Tunisie et le chef-lieu du gouvernorat du même nom. Établie sur le versant du Djebel Zaghouan, elle domine une vaste plaine agricole. À l'emplacement de l'antique Ziqua, dont il ne subsiste qu'une porte triomphale, Zaghouan est un bourg aux rues escarpées et coupées de petites places offrant des échappées sur la plaine. Région réputée pour ses aïns (sources) et son eau pure et convoitée, Zaghouan, attire aussi bien les Tunisiens que les touristes du monde arabe par ses hammams — l'un des plus connus est sans nul doute le hammam de la ville de Zriba située à huit kilomètres de Zaghouan — et son eau de rose d'une qualité exceptionnelle. À ses pieds demeurent les vestiges de l'aqueduc construit sous le règne de l'empereur Hadrien en 122 pour acheminer ...

http://fotosdeviajesatunez.blogspot.com.es/ La localidad de Zaghouan está situada en las laderas inferiores del Djebel Zaghouan, a 40 Km. al sur de Túnez, dentro del Parque Nacional de Zaghouan. El emperador Adriano eligió este lugar como manantial - fuente con el que surtir de agua, procedente del macizo montañoso del Djebel Zaghouan, a la ciudad de Cartago, para lo que ordenó la construcción de un acueducto de 144 Km. de longitud. Esta obra se realizó entre los años 120 y 131 d.C. La antigua villa Respublica Félix ("la república feliz"), Thuburbo Majus en la actualidad, era una ciudad púnica que se convirtió en romana cuando Adriano le concedió el rango de municipio.Impresionantes ruinas dan testimonio del auge urbanístico y de la riqueza que tuvo esta ciudad romana, al igual que las s...
Travel video about destination Carthago in Tunisia. Today, Carthage is still the centre of Tunisian political power and the past has made its own remarkable and indelible impression. According to legend, the city of Karth Hadasht was founded by Phoenician settlers in the year 814 B.C. The Romans named it, 'Carthage'. The city soon began to control the Numidic hinterland and established colonies in the entire western area of the Mediterranean. Relatively little remains of the original Phoenician and Punic buildings. So far, archaeologists have only managed to recover Roman treasures. A former monastery, Carthage Museum was built on historic land that also contains numerous fascinating relics from both the Punic and Roman epochs. Close to the museum there is an array of water cisterns, a...
