Asmara, the Capital of Eritrea: Africa's "Little Rome" and a Treasure of Architectural Art

Asmara, the capital and largest city of Eritrea, is located in the northern part of the East African Plateau, at an altitude of about 2,300 meters above sea level, with a pleasant climate, and is known as the "Little Rome of Africa". The city was founded in the late 19th century as an Italian colony, leaving behind a large number of buildings that are a blend of ancient Rome, neo-classicism and futurism, and has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Asmara's straight and wide streets, intertwined with colorful Italianate architecture, vintage cafes and independence monuments, display a unique blend of colonial history and indigenous African culture. As the political and economic center of Eritrea, Asmara is not only a transportation hub, but also a pilgrimage site for architecture lovers around the world because of its well-preserved modernist buildings, which have been described as "Africa's most unexpected artistic treasures".
