Find Peace, Awe, and Adventure in the Green Areas

More About This Event

After the grandeur of the palaces and the thrill of the zoos, find your own moment of tranquility. Unity Park’s sprawling green areas and hiking trails are a world unto themselves, offering a serene escape and breathtaking perspectives.

This isn't just a lawn; it's a meticulously built landscape. To create this lush oasis, 6,000 carloads of soil and materials were brought in, now home to thousands of plants and trees.

• For the Seeker of Peace: Find a quiet bench under the shade of a tree, listen to the birds, and simply breathe. The beautifully landscaped gardens, filled with native and exotic plants, are a perfect place to relax and let the history you've just absorbed sink in.

• For the Explorer: Lace up your shoes and hit the gentle hiking trails. They wind through the park's green heart, leading you to secluded spots and surprising you with beautiful paintings that depict Ethiopia's rich natural and cultural resources.

• For the Photographer: The trails lead to elevated viewpoints that offer some of the most stunning panoramic vistas of Addis Ababa. It’s the perfect place to watch the light change over the city and capture a truly unique photo of the capital.

It’s the perfect way to balance a day of stimulation with a healthy dose of nature and calm.
