Somalia, the Land of Punt, is an East African nation of 18 million people with its capital in Mogadishu. One of antiquity's most fabled trading civilisations, it captivates with the UNESCO-listed Laas Geel cave paintings — among the oldest and best-preserved rock art in the world — the ancient port city of Mogadishu, the pristine beaches of the Indian Ocean coastline, the frankincense forests of Puntland, and a proud Somali nomadic and maritime cultural heritage.
