Once branded by the image of starvation, famine and drought, there are few cities that can boast more beauty than Addis Ababa , Ethiopia . Nestled in the center of the "Horn of Africa," Addis Ababa is a haven to people of all ethnicities, cultures, and religious beliefs. One must only visit its large mosques, some of the largest in Africa , or its beautiful cathedrals to experience the feeling of unity prevalent in this historic city.

Commonly referred to as the “African Capital,” Addis Ababa is a city of majesty and wonder. A notable demonstration of the depth of its history is the preservation of “Lucy,” the fossil remains of one of our earliest human predecessors, currently housed in the National Museum of Ethiopia. From the vibrancy of its open air market, Mercado, to the richness and warmth of its people, Addis Abba has an abundance of wealth to offer anyone willing to seek it.
