Ethiopia could be considered as a tourist paradise without any exaggeration, for it contains natural and man made wonders. As the "Roof of Africa", the source of the Blue Nile and the Great Valley passing through it, with the existence of numerous endemic plants and animals, where coffee had originated, Ethiopia offers fascinating natural wonders.
