A new edition of the essential guide for independent travellers to this unusual and remarkable African country. In addition to the charms of Asmara – with its broad avenues, markets and Roman Catholic cathedral – the interior, rich in historical remains, is well worth visiting and is covered comprehensively. The main port, Massawa, is a natural gateway to the 350 islands in the Red Sea that offer superb diving, and this guide provides all the necessary information.
