Ethiopia lies between the Equator and the tropic of Capricorn. Its area is 1,112,000 square kilometers. Most parts of it are elevated plateau rising from 2100-4620 meters. It is divided in to climate regions marked as highlands, midland, lowlands and the peculiar “danakil depression” which at some point’s mountains, imposing peaks, alluring and glamorous gorges, ravishing tablelands, verdant pasture-lands, luxuriant tropical regions and the magnificent rift valley are some of its physical formations. Splendid landscapes, sparsely wooded semi-desert tracts, tremendous and unfamiliar physical relief, and the infrequent wilderness are some of the captivating, astonishing and outlandish attractions that Ethiopia offers. As a land of great physical contrast, its different territories are scenic and awe-inspiring. The innumerable, magnificent crater lakes characterize by their aquatic life, the alarming abysses, the interweaving rivers, the enticing and graceful waterfalls, the extraordinary savannah, the unusual wild domains and the bounteous country are mystery-surrounded and bizarre. The extensive national parks, game reserves and sanctuaries shelter a great member of wildlife species. Ethiopia is anchored in an ancient, cultured society.

It is the heir of an eminent, marvelous history. The rich culture of its affluent society is prominent. Its societies comprise a mosaic of over 80 ethnic groups. A sumptuous culture and profuse traditional flourished here for millennia. The close contacts if these various social communities are symbolic of its divers legacies. The virtuous patrimonies of these societies ever endeared its indelible cultural and social history. There are great and formidable stelae, timeless monuments, prehistoric cave- paintings, exotic rock-hewn churches, old monasteries, castles, mosques, temples and other shrines which harbour and shield all sorts of irreplaceable. The 3.5 million year old skeleton of lucy, the oldest maiden in the human race,Ramidus, the 4.4 million years remains of lucy’s ancestors, the 1.7 million year old tools of the primitive man are some of the rare relics preserved in the archaeological and ethnological museums of Addis. Ethiopia offers these and other dream haven treasures and inheritances. What is most astonishing is that Ethiopia is Abyssinian of yore, with romantic names like queen of Sheba, Prester John, Loin of Judan and Rasselas.  These names build an improbable land, nor a reality and, therefore, will surprise yourself one day by saying, “ I am going to Ethiopia.”
