Naasa Hablood (Somali: Naaso Hablood) (literally, Girl's Breasts) are twin hills situated on the outskirts of the city of Hargeisa in northeastern Somaliland. Since their discovery, the Naasa Hablood have become a key tourist attraction and a national landmark. The hills, which are made of granite and sand, are shaped like two, huge pyramids.

It is believed that the Naasa Hablood were formed after earthquakes struck the region several million years ago.[citation needed] When Somalis ruled the area now known as Somalia thousands of years ago, Ancient Egyptians came to their lands (which were then known as the Land of Punt). The Ancient Egyptians presented the locals with gifts and, in exchange, they received frankincense and myrrh. ==See also==
