Berbera is a coastal city in Somaliland situated on the coast of the Red Sea across the water from Yemen. The city has for centuries been a key hub in the regional exchange of commerce, culture and people across the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean.
The earliest descriptions of the city are thought to be by Chinese scholar Duan Chengshi in the Islamic year of 241–242/AD863. The city is mentioned by Islamic traveller Ibn Sa’id and Islamic scholar Ibn Batutta in the Thirteenth Century.
The city’s modern history began in 1804 with Ottoman and British colonization’s until 1960 when the city gained independence as part of Somaliland.
Today the city is experiencing a dynamic revitalization and increased regional and local interest with expanding commerce, building, new institutions, trade and fisheries as a hub between Somaliland and Ethiopia and the region.
