Description

A day among Africa’s finest Neolithic paintings — ochre cattle and herders on granite shelters east of Hargeisa.

Laas Geel is one of the Horn’s essential heritage days. Leave Hargeisa in the morning, walk the painted shelters with a local guide, and return for tea in the city. The site is outdoors and lightly shaded; wear sturdy shoes and modest clothing.
