Berbera Somaliland

There's a lot of fuss in Somaliland right now over a possible UAE military base being built in the coastal town of Berbera, where the giant company DP World is taking over the port. 

I expect this will bring changes to the town and its buildings, many of which are decorated with fishes and nautical images. Here are some of my photos from the town as it now.

I was told these chimney pots were from the days Somaliland was a British protectorate
