Hargeysa is located in a country according to the rest of the world doesnt exist!!This country is Somaliland,or north western somalia.I`ve traveled to hargeysa many times.And each time I`m estonished by the beauty of this city.It has risen from the ruins of the civil war in somalia.

Travelling to hargeysa accuires a simple visa u can get on the airport,the fee is only 30$.But you have to change 20$ in local current on the bank-office inside the airport too.

After that its away to discover this hidden flower in somalia.Taxis is very cheap,local current 15000Somaliland shilling(like 2$).

You can choose from the best and the rest!!

I recommend Ambassador Hotel,it`s located on the airport road its the nearest hotel.And far more the exlusivest!

In hargeysa city u will find a dozens of monuments relating to the civil.The most important of them is the one dat says:"Never forget,but Forgive"

The citizens of hargeysa is very friendly,most of the people speaks english,because it use to be a Brittish Protectorate.

U can find eveything u want in hargeysa,from simple burger with fries to traditional clothes and stuff.The most popular market there is the"Suuka baadlaha"Its the cheapest one too.There u will find a good bargain on clothes,shoes and even elctrical items.

Car hiring is a must in hargeysa,then u can visit the nearest citys like arabsiyo with its beautiful and popular gardens.U can hire a ride in the local car dealers,it costs 10-15 dollars for a sedan(normal car with five seats),and up to 40$ for a landcruiser each day.U can also get around with the many buses in the city,for only 1000 somaliland shillings(0,1$)

The most intressting place to sit down and a have a tea with mik is on the tea-houses in the centre of the city,often located under a big tree.There u find the elders,i always like to sit and have a chat with them they`ve got great stories from the history of Hargeysa datin back to when it was only one family living here.

Hargeysa got a lot to offer,the rest its you to find out.Good luck

Ambassador hotel is located near the airport.with all the fetures u can expect from a 5 star hotel!!!
