The climate is perfect, the streets are clean, refreshment is widespread, crime is very rare, the architecture is stunning, the distances are manageable, the sights are varied, and the people are warm. Explore the city on foot and discover its many hidden treasures, from 1930s art deco buildings, cinemas to futuristic petrol stations, and when you are tired there is always a café nearby in which to refuel with a wide selection of deinks and pastries.

Massawa:

Located on the Red Sea coast, Massawa is a fascinating city known for its ancient port, Ottoman-era architecture, and vibrant markets.

If Asmara is an Italian city, Massawa is Turko-Egyptian style, reflecting the periods of Ottoman and Egyptian rule from the 16th century to the late 19th century. The beautiful but ramshackle old twon was damaged during the struggle but its coral block buildings still retain some of the former grandeur that makes this antque port appear like a miniature version of Zanzibars Stone Town.
