A sip from the sea

[Amran Ethiopia Tour and Travel]

Unlike many of the other countries of the world, Ethiopia owns thousands of years of history. What is astonishing yet is not just having 3000 thousand years of history but a history that is full of incredible legends and mysteries. Beginning with the legend that springs from the Palace of King Solomon, Ethiopian history is one no one has so far been able to measure its width and height in full. You just can have a sip from the sea by coming here, however.

 

Northern Ethiopia

 

Your travel to the Northern Ethiopia is more of exciting exploration than mere visit. Behind every remnant descended from the people lived 3000 years ago, mysteries are buried that today’s archaeologists couldn’t dig out wholly. Axum’s famous obelisks and the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela are two of the beauties that your eyes would bulge out from their sockets for. The medieval Castles of Gondar also known as Africa’s Camelot are still homes for the souls of the kings and queens of the past. Fly to Northern Ethiopia and see how the present and the past live together in harmony.

 

Southern Ethiopia

Unlike the Northern part of the nation, the people in south are not that reach in terms of remnants of old constructions but a living culture that strikes the very existence of the self. Natural beauties are main reasons for many tourists to revisit Southern Ethiopia. Mursi, Karo and Hamar tribes of the South will help you recognize what difference was born between the modern life and the natural one. A few days of stay among these people will help you renew your entire life.

Tiya stela e field is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for their attractive and mysterious pillars.  Bale Mountains National Park gives you the opportunity to see many of the bizarre animals unknown to the world. Supreme Mountain hiking; horse trekking and scenic driving are few of the activities you will take great pleasure from.

Erta’ale

Located in the Danakil Depression of Northern Afar, Erta’ale is one of the spectacular and unique places where you can see the earth ‘roasting’ itself.  You probably have imagined lake of fire but no doubt you haven’t seen one unless of course you have not been to Afar – Ethiopia.  

Erta’ale is the most active isolated shield volcano in Ethiopia famed for its long-standing lava lake activity. For at least the last 90 years this volcano has been active which makes it the longest-known historic eruptions. Be on your way to Erta’ale now to load some pictures of this miracle both in your brain and camera memories.
