Djibouti Destination Guide Djibouti Destination Guide Overview of Djibouti Djibouti is a small and easily overlooked destination on the Horn of Africa. A frequent pit stop for vessels passing in and out of the Red Sea, it's certainly off the beaten track for tourists. Around two thirds of Djibouti's citizens reside in the capital, Djibouti City, making their living through the large informal market economy. Travellers looking to spend a few hours here should visit the Central Market, the Stade du Ville (national stadium), Presidential Palace, and Hamouli Mosque. Getting around isn't cheap, though, as the lack of regulation and infrastructure means that taxis are expensive. Largely desert, the country's landscape includes mountains in the interior, a coastal plain in the east (the beaches at Doralé and Khor-Ambado have warm waters and exotic marine life) and an arid plateau in the west. Most of the interior sits within the Afar Depression, a region that lies 500 feet (155m) below sea level and is rich in ancient fossils. It's also one of the hottest places on Earth, with temperatures sometimes reaching 118°F (48°C). Lake Assal is another area of interest. Located some 75 miles (120km) south of Djibouti City, it is the lowest point in Africa. The British Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office advises against all travel near the border with Eritrea, but the rest of this unique country enjoys political stability and a relatively safe atmosphere. Key Facts Language: Arabic and French are the official languages of Djibouti, but the majority of locals speak either Somali or Afar. Passport/Visa: Nationals of any country can obtain a visa on arrival in Djibouti, for a fee. Visas obtained on arrival are usually valid for up to one month, but immigration officials may grant a longer or shorter stay. It is advisable to arrange a visa in advance as relying on getting one on arrival is risky. All travellers must hold: (i) return or onward tickets; (ii) required entry documentation for their next destination; (iii) sufficient funds to cover their stay in Djibouti or a voucher if travelling in an organised tour. It is highly recommended that your passport has at least six months validity remaining after your intended date of departure from your travel destination. Immigration officials often apply different rules to those stated by travel agents and official sources. Currency: The Djiboutian franc (DJF) is the official currency of Djibouti. The franc is divided into 100 centimes. There are several banks in Djibouti City and a few authorised bureaux de change, but credit cards are seldom accepted and there are only a handful of ATMs in the city, which are frequently out of order and can't be relied on. Outside of the capital banking facilities are pretty much nonexistent. Electricity: Electrical outlets in Djibouti usually supply electricity at 220 volts, and 50Hz. European two-pin plugs with round pins are standard. Travel guide by wordtravels.com © Globe Media Ltd.

Page 1/8 Djibouti Destination Guide Travel to Djibouti Climate in Djibouti Djibouti has an arid climate and is hot year-round with lots of sunshine and not much rain. Most of the country is desert, ranging from the semi-arid to the arid, although the Goda Mountains have a cooler, milder climate than the rest of the country. Between May and September, Djibouti is swelteringly hot, with temperatures averaging a whopping 104°F (40°C), and sometimes reaching highs of 113°F (45°C). Humidity levels are also high during this period, adding considerably to the discomfort. The cooler season, which is also the rainy season, runs from mid-October to mid-April, when temperatures average a far more comfortable 77°F (25°C). Rain showers are occasional and not too disruptive to travel - in fact they are refreshing - but some fog and cloud cover should be anticipated during the rainy season. Djibouti gets plenty of sunshine year-round, however, with an average of eight to ten hours of sun every day. The best time of year to visit Djibouti is in the cooler, rainy season between November and April, as the dry season is uncomfortably hot. The month to avoid is July, which is not only swelteringly hot but also plagued by hot desert winds. Health Notes when travelling to Djibouti Malaria is a problem in Djibouti and some form of prophylaxis is recommended for all travellers in all areas. A yellow fever vaccination is required to enter Djibouti for all travellers arriving from yellow fever areas. Vaccinations are recommended for hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and typhoid. Those planning to spend a lot of time outdoors who may be at risk of animal bites should consider a rabies vaccination as well. Visitors should be up to date on vaccinations for polio, MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), and tetanus-diphtheria. Travellers should not drink tap water in Djibouti unless it has been boiled, filtered, or chemically disinfected, and should avoid ice in beverages. Don't eat fruit and vegetables unless they have been cooked or peeled, and eat all cooked meals while still hot. Medical facilities are extremely limited in Djibouti, even in the capital city, and visitors should ensure that they have comprehensive travel insurance. As the availability of medicine is limited, visitors should take along any medication they may need in its original packaging and accompanied by a signed and dated letter from a doctor detailing what the medicine is and why it is needed. Safety Notes when travelling to Djibouti The UK Foreign Office advises against all travel to the border area between Eritrea and Djibouti, but otherwise the country is considered comparatively safe. There is an underlying threat of terrorism spilling over from neighbouring countries and some threats have been made by terrorist groups in the region, but no significant terrorist attacks targeting foreigners have occurred. Petty, opportunistic crimes like bag-snatching and pickpocketing are fairly common in Djibouti City and tourists should exercise caution in crowded areas and should not carry valuables. Violent crimes against foreigners are rare. Street protests in the capital are also rare but can become violent when they do occur and should be avoided by visitors. Seaborne travel along the coast of Djibouti is very dangerous as piracy is common. Customs in Djibouti Customs and culture in Djibouti are reserved and formal: women should maintain modest dress at all times, with their shoulders and legs covered, especially when visiting mosques. Always address seniors with respect. Duty Free in Djibouti Visitors to Djibouti must declare all currency and firearms on arrival and departure. One litre of alcoholic beverages can be imported into Djibouti without incurring customs duty. Weapons, drugs, and pornography are strictly prohibited. Tipping in Djibouti Tips are not always expected in Djibouti, but they are appreciated. Restaurants tend to add a 10 percent service charge to bills, making tipping unnecessary, but waiters, hotel service staff, and taxi drivers will appreciate small amounts for good service.

I’d like to say to them that we are thankful to all that they do to support the country through remittances, through connections with their families and their institutions, and we’re just looking forward to many of them who are coming home, even if for just short periods of time, and we hope some of them will think about relocating and joining the process of reconstruction.

About that, aesthetic value and interior space concept will be arranged in an example kind of new in visual forms. The interior space of the Yogyakarta Presidential Palace concept was a development from the interior space concept during the era of Sukarno. This research is based on the aesthetic and historical approach that stressed on the artistic aspects and design that are associated with aesthetic appeal. The study uses a qualitative research method with an interdisciplinary approach that includes historical, social, cultural, and aesthetic approaches by not leaving descriptive aspects and critical analysis of reading sources and field surveys. It is inductive qualitative research because the inductive process is more able to find multiple realities as contained in the data.

    Mr. Ilham Aliyev Presidential Palace Istiglaliyyat street 19 1066 Baku Republic of Azerbaijan Fax: +994124923543 and +994124920625 E-mail: [email protected] 23 April 2012 Urgent appeal for the prompt and impartial investigation, followed by a fair and open trial, of the attack against journalists Idrak Abbasov, Gunay Musayeva and Adalat Abbasov Mr. President, On 18 April 2012 in Baku, security guards attacked a prominent Azerbaijani journalist, Idrak Abbasov. This violent assault constitutes another case out of a long list of journalists harassed and attacked in Azerbaijan. The authorities of Azerbaijan bear the international responsibility to fully guarantee and promote the right to freedom of expression, as well as to carry out a prompt and impartial investigation and bring those responsible for these hideous crimes to justice in fair and open trial. Idrak Abbasov, a reporter of the newspaper Zerkalo and of the Institute for Reporters' Freedom and Safety (IRFS), was beaten by security guards of the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic (SOCAR) whilst filming the confrontation between the residents of the settlement of Sulutepe on the outskirts of Baku and SOCAR, which is in charge of demolishing irregular homes in the area. Idrak Abbasov was wearing clear journalist identification when he was approached by the security guards and consecutively beaten up during 5 to 7 minutes. The journalist – unconscious, coughing up blood, with many bruises and hematomas – was taken to the hospital. According to doctors, his present state of health is very poor and he suffers from serious head and body traumas. His brother, Adalat Abbasov and a female journalist Gunay Musayeva were also assaulted.

  • Re-Imagining Haiti's National Palace
    Research Design Competition Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights shows that adequate, dignified buildings and housing are fundamental to our human rights. Symbolic Power, History and Humanitarian Crisis: Re-Imagining Haiti’s National Palace Site: Palais National (National Palace), Port-au-Prince, Haiti Introduction: The National Palace in Haiti has shaped and been shaped by the course of the geopolitical history of the modern world. After suffering major damage in the 2010 earthquake, the building has lain in ruins in Port-au-Prince. As a poignant reminder of the neo-colonial impact on the Caribbean before the disaster, the building’s current state stands as a metaphor for the country’s crippled political system and tumultuous history. However, it remains unclear whether the presidential palace will be reconstructed, demolished, or replaced. The complex relationship between its historical influences, the current political climate and presence of international actors will be explored in this research design competition. History: The site has a tumultuous and violent history that begins long before the 2010 disaster. Serving as the Haitian rulers’ residence since the 18th century, the site has seen several forms of rule, from colonial to imperial, dictatorship, and finally democracy. Initially the Government Palace, it was visited by Simon Bolivar seeking troops for his South American campaign. In 1850, renamed the Imperial Palace it was destroyed in 1869 by a rebel army bombardment which ignited a store of munitions and gunpowder held by the president. A replacement was built in 1881, which was then destroyed by a bomb blast in 1912, ending the rule of President Cincinnatus Leconte.
