A glimpse into the past: Djibouti, East Africa - L Hotel des Arcades (circa 1910s) This evocative photograph captures the L Hotel des Arcades in Djibouti, East Africa, during the 1910s. The image transports us back in time, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the history and allure of this fascinating region. The L Hotel des Arcades, a grand architectural masterpiece, is nestled amidst the bustling streets of Djibouti City. Its elegant facade, adorned with intricate arcades, exudes an air of sophistication and charm. The hotel's terrace, with its sweeping views of the Gulf of Tadjoura, invites guests to unwind and take in the breathtaking vistas. The photograph reveals a scene of tranquility and leisure, as a lone figure pushes a cart laden with supplies along the hotel's terrace. The cart, a common mode of transportation in the region, adds a touch of authentic African charm to the scene. The vibrant colors of the cart and the hotel's terracotta roofs contrast beautifully against the clear blue sky, creating a visual feast for the eyes. The L Hotel des Arcades was a symbol of luxury and comfort in a time when travel to Africa was an adventure. Today, the hotel continues to be a popular destination for tourists and business travelers, offering modern amenities while preserving its rich history and heritage. This photograph serves as a reminder of the past, and the enduring allure of Djibouti and its people.
