El Menzah

El Menzah (Arabic: المنزه, pronounced el-mānzah) is a delegation and group of residential suburbs located north of central Tunis, the capital of Tunisia. Developed primarily after Tunisian independence, it is known for its planned neighborhoods, modernist architecture, and relatively affluent residential character.

The area consists of several numbered subdivisions (El Menzah I–X), developed in stages beginning in the 1950s as part of the northward expansion of Greater Tunis. Some sectors lie administratively within the municipality of Tunis, while others extend into nearby Ariana Governorate.

El Menzah is also home to the Cité olympique d'El Menzah, a major sports complex built for the 1967 Mediterranean Games and centered around the El Menzah Stadium. The district remains one of the most established residential suburbs in northern Tunis and is known for its proximity to universities, diplomatic missions, and major transport routes.
