24 HOURS IN ETHIOPIA in Addis Ababa.🇪🇹

It was short, but somehow we managed to experience coffee ceremonies, injera, local markets, churches, history, incredible views and some of the most fascinating stories we’ve heard while travelling.

📍 SAVE THIS for your Addis Ababa trip:

☕ Ethiopian coffee ceremony - coffee here is much more than a drink; the traditional ceremony is a social ritual of roasting, grinding and brewing.
🫓 Injera — the famous Ethiopian flatbread is traditionally made with teff and fermented batter.
🧺 Merkato - one of the most famous markets in Addis Ababa and described by Ethiopia’s tourism material as Africa’s largest open market. Expect textiles, spices, food, coffee and plenty of local life.
🐒 National Museum of Ethiopia - this is where you can see Lucy, the famous Australopithecus afarensis fossil, who lived around 3.2 million years ago.
⛰️ Entoto - head into the hills above Addis for higher-altitude views over the city.
🍯 Try Tej - traditional Ethiopian honey wine.
⛪ Explore the churches - Addis has a fascinating Orthodox Christian heritage, with centuries of religious traditions, manuscripts and stories.

24 hours was nowhere near enough - but it was enough to make us want to come back.

Save this for your Ethiopia trip & send it to your travel partner. ✈️

24 ЧАСА В ЕТИОПИЯ 🇪🇹

Първото ни посещение в Етиопия — и имахме само 24 часа в Адис Абеба.

📍 ЗАПАЗИ СИ това за бъдещо пътуване до Адис Абеба:

☕ Етиопската кафе церемония - кафето тук е много повече от напитка. Традиционното приготвяне е социален ритуал с изпичане, смилане и варене на кафето.

🫓 Инджера - традиционната етиопска питка се приготвя от теф и ферментирало тесто.

🧺 Merkato - един от най-известните пазари в Адис Абеба и описван като най-големия открит пазар в Африка. Ще откриете платове, подправки, храна, кафе и много
