Djibouti City, the capital and largest city of the Republic of Djibouti, is located on the west coast of the Gulf of Aden in northeastern Africa, at the crossroads of the Bab el Mandeb Strait, where the Red Sea enters the Indian Ocean. As an important international port city, its geographic location has significant strategic value and is known as the "sentinel on the oil route". With an area of about 630 square kilometers and a population of about 600,000, the city is the administrative, economic and cultural center of the country.
Djibouti City is a blend of African, Arab and French colonial cultures, and the official languages are Arabic and French. The economy is dominated by port services, with one of the most modern deep-water ports in East Africa, which is an important sea route for landlocked countries such as Ethiopia. In recent years, its position as a logistics hub has been further strengthened by the construction of the multi-purpose port of Doha Rey and the Djibouti International Free Trade Zone, in which China is involved. The city has a unique landscape of mosques and Catholic churches, while the central market has a tropical flavor of local spices and handicrafts.
The city is surrounded by volcanic landscapes and salt lakes, with Lake Asal being 155 meters below sea level, the lowest point in Africa. Despite its arid and hot climate, Djibouti City has a guaranteed water supply through desalination technology. As a key node of the Belt and Road Initiative, the city is rapidly modernizing its infrastructure, while retaining its traditional African bazaar and 19th century French architecture, creating a blend of old and new. The city's strategic military position has led to the establishment of overseas bases by the United States, France and China, further contributing to the city's internationalization.
