Ali Sabieh is the second-largest city in Djibouti, situated about 98 kilometres southwest of Djibouti City. It sits in a wide basin surrounded by granite mountains, offering a mild climate that's a popular escape for Djiboutians seeking relief from the hotter coastal areas. The city itself has a long history, becoming an administrative and commercial centre in the 19th century after the construction of the Ethio-Djibouti Railway, the first railway in French Somaliland. Today, visitors can explore the area's historical sites or venture out to see the nearby Grand Bara, a vast, 30-kilometer long plain of white clay that's perfect for exploring by car.
