Although I missed famous Lalibela I have greatly enjoyed historic Gondar. Here I spent a wonderful morning wandering about and around the castle complex listed among the World Heritage Sites. It was beautiful and peaceful, a park in the city centered around the old fortress and inhabited by marvellous birds and large shade-spending Jacaranda trees.
Located on the shore of Lake Tana Bahir Dar offered a glimpse into the worlds of wildlife and birdwatching and the opportunity to visit some old monasteries with beautiful wall paintings. Though small, its market was picturesque and inspiring.
Addis Ababa strikes as a modern city with people open for change and full of initiative. The huge open market provides grounds for exploration and artistic inspiration.
The town of Arba Minch is the gateway to a national park and more stunning scenery around its lakes. It is the gateway to the Southern part of Ethiopia where the changes in colours and hairstyles, facial figures and clothing only confirmed the ethnic diversity in the population.
