What You’ll Experience

National Museum of Ethiopia

Discover the cradle of humanity at the National Museum of Ethiopia, home to the world-renowned "Lucy" skeleton. This must-visit museum showcases a vast collection of ancient artifacts, providing a fascinating glimpse into Ethiopia's rich cultural heritage.

1 hourAdmission Ticket Included

Holy Trinity Cathedral

Holy Trinity Cathedral, a magnificent structure nestled in the heart of Addis Ababa, stands as a testament to Ethiopia's deep-rooted Christian faith. As the second-most important place of worship in the country, after the Old Church of St. Mary of Zion in Aksum, the cathedral holds a special place in the hearts of Ethiopians.

30 minutesAdmission Ticket Included

Mercato Market

Nestled in the heart of Addis Ababa, Mercato Market is a bustling hub of activity that offers a glimpse into the vibrant Ethiopian culture. This sprawling marketplace, one of the largest in Africa, is a must-visit for any traveler seeking an authentic Ethiopian experience.

1 hourAdmission Ticket Free

Meskel Square (Pass By)

Meskel Square, smack in the middle of Addis Ababa, isn’t just concrete and space—it’s where the city breathes. Every September, thousands pack in for Meskel Festival, lighting bonfires and chanting under smoky skies to celebrate the True Cross. But it’s not all ancient tradition: protests erupt here, concerts blast through the night, and daily life swirls around its edges. It’s messy, loud, and unapologetically alive—a place where Ethiopia’s past and present collide.

Tomoca Coffee

Tomoca Coffee House: Experience the rich heritage of Ethiopian coffee at Tomoca, one of the oldest coffee shops in Addis Ababa. Enjoy freshly brewed traditional coffee or indulge in a modern espresso, prepared with the finest locally sourced beans.

30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Entoto Maryam Church

Entoto Maryam Church: Begin your day with a visit to the historic Entoto Maryam Church, situated on the scenic Entoto Hills. Enjoy the panoramic views of Addis Ababa while exploring this significant church with its traditional Ethiopian Orthodox architecture and historical importance, including its connection to Emperor Menelik II.

1 hourAdmission Ticket Not Included

Fendika

Live Ethiopian Jazz at Hyatt Regency Fendika: Experience the vibrant contemporary Ethiopian music scene by enjoying a live Ethiopian jazz performance at the new location of Fendika, now situated within the Hyatt Regency Addis Ababa. Immerse yourself in the unique rhythms and melodies of Ethiopian jazz, providing a perfect end to your day of exploration.
