Addis Ababa

Floating at just over 7000 feet in the highlands neighbouring East Africas Great Rift Valley the vibrant city of Addis Ababa holds the trophy for most elevated city in Africa. Initially, a military encampment for the Ethiopian army Addis quickly developed into one of the most beautiful locations on the continent now home to various cultural behemoths. From its infamously chaotic Meskel Square, where pedestrians and vehicles of all sorts merge into a lane-less, roundabout-less intersection, to its magnetising nightlife the city constantly finds ways to keep you on your toes.
