Somaliland has ancient history and archaeology sites with paintings of thousands of years back in general, and Saryan museum is historic photos and old traditional art galleries and house materials

Wonderful place, the girl that was giving us the tour was very kind and sweet she explained to us everything that was in the museum,the photos, items that was used back in the day and many more stuff.I would really recommend ppl to visit the museum whether you’re young or old because trust me you’ll find alot of fascinating and unique things and u might also find some heart breaking photos💔 but in general this visit will always be in my memory 😪

I took my high school students here for a field trip to see what I consider a gem of Somaliland that will continue to improve and serve as an institution to educate Somalilanders and foreigners alike. The staff was helpful and was able to translate and explain various exhibits in English for me. It is divided into to parts currently, the cultural and historical. I absolutely loved the historical building as it even uncovered some history that I was unaware of. This brought history to life for my students and they had a wonderful time visiting. I look forward to sending more students of history here so they can appreciate their history and have a bit more pride in being from Somaliland. As it is a place that does not allow photography in either building (complete understandable and smart) this makes Saryan Museum something you must see firsthand. To my knowledge admission is two dollars per person.
