Holy Trinity Cathedral, även känd på amhariska som Kidist Selassie, är den högst rankade etiopisk-ortodoxa Tewahedo-katedralen i Addis Abeba, Etiopien. Den byggdes 1942 för att fira den etiopiska segern över den italienska ockupationen och är en viktig plats för tillbedjan i Etiopien. Gravarna för kejsar Haile Selassie och kejsarinna Menen Asfaw, liksom andra medlemmar av den kejserliga familjen, finns inne i katedralen.
Tomoca ligger i Piazza-området och är Etiopiens äldsta kafé (sedan 1953). Etiopiens traditionella kaffeceremoni är en av de mest ikoniska och omhuldade kulturella ritualerna i Etiopien.
Mercato är den största utomhusmarknaden i Afrika, täcker flera kvadratmil och sysselsätter uppskattningsvis 13 000 personer i 7 100 affärsenheter uppdelade i organiserade zoner (jordbruksprodukter, rökelse, kaffe, kryddor, smycken, återvinning, korgar, keramik, lädervaror, metallvaror)
Lunch på det äldsta hotellet i Addis. Taitu Hotel byggdes 1905 (1898 i den etiopiska kalendern) mitt i staden (Piazza), av Taitu Betul (1851–1918), den etiopiska kejsarinnan och kejsar Menelik II:s hustru, för att ge utländska gäster en plats att vila och äta. Alternativa platser för lunch är möjliga. Lunch ingår inte i turnéns pris.
Museet är uppdelat i tre sektioner. I källaren innehåller den paleontologiska utställningen många värdefulla lokala arkeologiska fynd såsom de fossiliserade resterna av tidiga hominider, varav den mest kända är "Lucy". Samlingen är rankad bland de viktigaste Afrika söder om Sahara. I bottenvåningen exponeras artefakter från aksumit, pre-aksumit, solomonisk och gonderisk period. På första våningen finns en levande visning av etiopisk konst från tidigt 1300-tals pergament till 1900-talets oljemålning på duk.
Etnologiska museet är en offentlig institution tillägnad etnologi och kultur. Beläget i Haile Selassies tidigare palats och omgivet av de vackra trädgårdarna och fontänerna på universitetets huvudcampus, rymmer Etnologiska museet antropologiska, musikologiska och kulturella föremål.
Beläget på 3400 meters höjd, var Entoto naturpark där den tidigare kejsaren Minilik II: s permanenta läger och palats låg. Från toppen har man panoramautsikt över huvudstaden och den omgivande landsbygden. Berget är tätt täckt av eukalyptusträd som importerades från Australien under Menelik II:s regeringstid, och mestadels planterades under kejsar Haile Selassies regeringstid. Således kallas den ibland "Lungan i Addis Abeba".
Shiro Meda Market (även stavat "Chiromeda") säljer etiopiska textilier i alla dess former, från etiopiska bröllopsklänningar till olika typer av kläder, linne och tyger.

Alex was absolutely an amazing guide. He has so many stories to tell and he has incredible knowledge of Ethiopian history. You will enjoy Addis Ababa in depth on this trip. It is very well balanced with a little bit of everything seeing the real unfiltered version of Addis Ababa. I had a very enjoyable experience and I highly recommend it.
We enjoyed our tour with Alex and Alum. Alex is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Ethiopia. The visit to Mercato and to the pottery were for me the highlights of the tour. Alum is a very good driver. We felt very safe, while driving and while walking. We’re leaving Ethiopia with some very nice memories.

Excellent overview of the city in a short period of time. Alex helped us feel safe while also enabling us to experience the Merketo in all its glory. The visit to where Ethiopian mothers make pottery was educational and uplifting. A visit to the museum to see Lucy finished off a great day. Highly recommend.

A Deeply Soul-Stirring Journey Through the Heart of Addis Ababa ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are looking for a travel experience that reaches beyond sightseeing and settles somewhere deep in your spirit, Addis Ababa delivers in ways I did not fully anticipate. This city is layered, alive, and unapologetically rich in history, faith, and artistry, and I left feeling genuinely transformed. Our day opened at Holy Trinity Cathedral, known in Amharic as Kidist Selassie, the highest ranking Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo cathedral in all of Addis Ababa. Standing inside those walls, surrounded by centuries of devotion, vivid iconography, and a reverence that commands stillness, you feel the full weight of a civilization that has kept its faith unbroken for millennia. This was the spiritual anchor of the entire day. From there, we stepped into history at Tomoca Coffee in the Piazza area, the oldest coffee shop in Ethiopia, open since 1953. The traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony is iconic for good reason. It is ritual, community, and flavor all in one cup, and experiencing it here felt like the most authentic possible introduction to Ethiopian culture. Mercato Market came next, and nothing quite prepares you for the scale of it. The largest open-air market in Africa, covering several square miles and supporting an estimated 13,000 people across thousands of business entities, Mercato is organized chaos in the most magnificent way. The energy, the color, the commerce, and the craftsmanship on display were absolutely electric. This is also where the women’s pottery cooperative left its mark on me. Watching these artisans shape clay into vessels of extraordinary beauty using techniques passed down across generations was quietly profound. They are not simply craftswomen; they are living keepers of cultural memory. I purchased pieces I will treasure forever. Lunch at the Taitu Hotel in Piazza was a highlight in its own right. Built in 1905, it is the oldest hotel in Addis Ababa, commissioned by Empress Taitu Betul herself. Sitting down to a spread of injera, stews, and spiced lentils in that historic dining room felt like eating inside a chapter of Ethiopian history. Every bite told a story. The afternoon brought us to the National Museum of Ethiopia, where the paleontological collections in the basement alone are worth the entire trip. Being in the presence of some of the most significant archaeological finds on the continent puts human existence into breathtaking perspective. We then moved through the Ethnological Museum, which added yet another layer of cultural depth and rounded out the day beautifully. Our tour guides and drivers were nothing short of exceptional throughout every stop. Warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about sharing the history of their country, they elevated every moment of the itinerary. Their knowledge was deep, their storytelling was engaging, and their hospitality made us feel welcomed rather than simply toured. Addis Ababa is not a city you simply visit. It is a city that marks you. Go with an open heart, comfortable shoes, and an appetite for both food and history, and it will give you far more than you ever expected.
