# 398 Erytrea cz.1: Asmara (Róg Afryki + Nigeria cz. 7)

Asmara, Eritrea 🇪🇷 Unusually for Africa, this country's capital (because African capitals are usually rather uninteresting) is... great! Italian architects had a lot of scope here in the 1920s and 1930s, creating the Piccola Roma. But it's not just the Art Deco buildings that are interesting here. You'll remember: a visit to the market, where workers recycle scrap metal, mainly from oil drums, into wonders... a game of bowling, which is set by hand; a visit to a tank scrapyard; And that's just the beginning of your adventure in Eritrea... #eritrea #eritrea #asmara
