Nefasit and the Winding Road from Asmara: A Glimpse into Eritrea's Past This photograph transports us back in time to the 1930s in Eritrea, a small town in the Northern Red Sea Region called Nefasit. Nestled amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery, Nefasit is a picturesque scene of tranquility and beauty. In the background, the bustling city of Asmara can be seen, its modern architecture a stark contrast to the rural charm of Nefasit. The winding road that starts at Asmara, snaking its way up the steep hillside, is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the Italian colonizers who built it during their rule of Italian East Africa. The hairpin bends and steep inclines make for a challenging drive, but the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape make it all worthwhile. The Northern Red Sea Region of Eritrea, with its diverse culture and rich history, has long been a source of fascination for travelers and historians alike. This photograph offers a unique perspective on a time when the region was still under Italian rule, and the influence of European colonialism was evident in the infrastructure and architecture. As we gaze at this image, we are reminded of the complex and intriguing history of Eritrea and the people who call it home. The winding road from Asmara to Nefasit stands as a symbol of the connections and interactions between different cultures and communities, and the enduring allure of the African continent.
