Eritrea offers an astonishing variety and
it tends to attract varied visitors from archaeologists to architects;
scholars to scuba divers; historians to hikers; and cyclists to steam
railway buffs.
While there are many reasons to come to Eritrea
, there is one impression that endures when you leave: the remarkable
kindness of the Eritrean people. Making friends
here is an unavoidable pleasure and one that touched the lives of so many visitors.
The country stretches along the Red Sea and low-lying in the eastern coastal
regions and western border with Sudan, with precipitous mountainous interior
rising to a majestic 2,500m (8200ft) above sea level.
