"Ethiopia" a Ethiopia Travel Page by sachara

In February and March 2004 I visited Ethiopia for about five weeks.
I visited Bahir Dar, Gondar, Simen Mountains, Aksum and Lalibela in the north and Lake Langano, Arba Minch and the Omo Region in the south.

Ethiopia is a fascinating country because of its unique cultural identitiy, because there was no European colonialism in the past.

Ethiopia is striking for its diversity in landscapes and peoples. Ethiopia with its rich traditions an ancient history has a lot of unique attractions like rock-hewn churches, castles and archaeological finds.

The Simien Mountains, but also lesser known areas, offer wonderful landscapes.
And you will encounter the diversity of the Ethiopian peoples.
The most people we met along the road were friendly, sometimes shy, sometimes self-confident.

The south of Ethiopia has the most diverse and fascinating peoples, I ever saw, like the Hamer, the Mursi, the Konso , the Banna and others
