More About This Event

Menelik II's Palace Complex (within Unity Park): While you’re in Unity Park, don’t miss the historical heart of the Grand Palace. The construction of this complex began in the early 1890s and served as the living and working space for seven Ethiopian leaders. You can see Emperor Menelik II's bedroom, his prayer room (the "Egg House"), and the building where the country’s first telephone line was installed. It’s a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of Ethiopian royalty.
