Asmara is Eritrea’s capital and most populous city in the country’s central region. It is located at an altitude of 2,325 meters, making it the sixth highest capital in the world of elevation. The city is at the top of a path on the northwestern edge of the Eritrea Highlands and the Great Rift Valley in neighboring Ethiopia.
In 2017, the city was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its well-preserved modernist architecture. In the city, you will find one of the world’s finest collections of architecture from the early 20th century. There are more than 400 buildings to be recognized by UNESCO.
We will spend about 4 hours exploring central Asmara. The city is known as “Piccola Roma” (Little Rome), and its most striking collection of art deco became popular in the 1920s. Many of its buildings display Art Deco architectural wonders such as:
The Roman Catholic cathedral, St Mary Coptic church, Al Khulafa al Rashedin, Market [vegetable, spices, souvenir, Medeber (recycling depot)], Fiat Tagliero building.
Coffee break or we take a little more extended break for those we eat lunch in lung peace
We end our tours by visiting the Nationalmuseum and Tank graveyard. It’s a bleak reminder of one of Africa’s longest wars in recent memory, the Eritrean War of Independence, fought between 1961 and 1991 and the Eritrean railway was constructed between 1887 and 1932
