Carved wooden doors, verandas and buildings of many different influences reveal the city's mixed heritage. Getting lost in this maze of lively, multicoloured alleyways, linked together like an untied shoelace, is full of surprises: children run past, painters work in their open studios, women dressed in colourful saris stroll by; a bar broadcasts a football match in the street, bringing together nonchalant strollers and informed spectators. At the end of the day, the chant of the muezzin emanates from the mosque, drowning out the noise of the scooters and the cries of the market, leaving the historic city to return to itself, calm and peaceful. This is when the details of ordinary life come into focus. <br>To round off the day, we suggest you let yourself be enchanted by the eternal spectacle of the sunset by heading to \"The Africa House\", a bar with a terrace facing the west coast of the island.
