Djibouti, Djibouti

Capital of the small African republic of the same name, Djibouti is built on three level tracts of land linked by broad piers. Djibouti sits at a natural crossroads, on the arid northern shores of the Horn of Africa, just across from the extending point of the Arab Peninsula. The French recognized this strategic location in 1888, when they built the port as the capital of French Somaliland. A tour of this city on the horn of Africa will take you past the Presidential Palace and L'Escale, where fishing dhows and tall ships anchor. Take a stroll through the picturesque streets near the Plaza of Mahamoud Harbi and enjoy the kaleidoscope of the market.
