About Addis Ababa
A city of contradictions, Ethiopia’s capital is both ancient and modern, traditional and contemporary, making Addis Ababa a unique and fascinating city to explore. Surrounded by mountains, the beautiful natural landscape contrasts with the bustling Piazza (the old city centre), where you’ll find charming cafés, jewellery shops, museums, galleries, and interesting restaurants.
You’ll often detect the aroma of fresh coffee in the air – it’s the leading national drink, and coffee being served on every street corner. The city also runs on music, with a hopping swing and jazz scene that’s been going strong since the 1960s, and a night at one of Addis Ababa’s jazz houses is a must.
