| Ethiopia, the oldest independent nation in Africa, is a land of stunning natural beauty. A land of rugged mountains (some 25 are over 4,000 meters high), broad savannah, lakes and rivers. The unique Rift Valley is a remarkable region of volcanic lakes, with their famous collections of bird life, great escarpments and stunning vistas. Tissisat, the Blue Nile Falls, must rank as one of the greatest natural spectacles in Africa to day. There are 14 major wildlife reserves and over 80 different peoples to visit. |
