Arta is the capital of the Arta region of the Republic of Djibouti, located in the highlands about 40 kilometers west of the capital city of Djibouti, at an altitude of about 750 meters above sea level. As an important inland town in Djibouti, Arta is a popular summer resort with its relatively cool climate.
Nestled on the edge of the Godda Mountains, Arta is surrounded by dry scrubland, providing a stark contrast to the coastal heat. The surrounding hills are popular for hiking and scenic views overlooking the Gulf of Aden on the Red Sea.
Arta's economy is based on animal husbandry and a small amount of agriculture, while educational services are gradually being developed as a result of the establishment of a branch of the University of Djibouti. The town has a population of around 15,000, mainly Afar and Issa of Somali origin, and retains its traditional nomadic cultural identity.
Arta is one of Djibouti's inland transportation hubs, connected to Djibouti City and the Ethiopian border by a national highway. In recent years, its pleasant climate and strategic location have begun to attract some government agencies and international organizations to set up branches.
