Om
Hurtige fakta: Paladset blev bygget af italiensk marmor og lokal sten i årene 1920 til 1926 for sultan Mohamoud Ali Shirwa. Efter en brand i 2020 står kun den massive stenfacade tilbage, som stadig er et populært sted for aftenlige sammenkomster blandt lokale beboere.
Højdepunkter: De færreste ved, at der under paladset findes en velbevaret labyrint af gange, som sultanen flygtede igennem ved fjendtlige angreb. Den dag i dag er væggene i disse gange dækket af originale ornamenter, og besøgende kan på egen krop opleve, hvordan en herskers flugtrute så ud for århundreder siden.
Insidertips
- Wear sturdy footwear, the floor is unstable in places and full of rubble.
- The best photos are taken from the south side of the facade, where the most detailed ornamental stucco has been preserved.
- Avoid the midday heat between 12 and 3 p.m., the roof no longer exists and there is nowhere to hide from the sun.
- After the tour, try the Somali tea with ginger and milk at the entrance for a few cents.
