Obelisk of Axum

I don't dislike it by the way, i just wish it had been kept in a better condition than is being taken care of now. I also wish it had better accommodations for the tourists

nice burger

The ruins of the ancient city of Aksum mark the location of the heart of the ancient Kingdom of Ethiopia (Aksum). The massive ruins include monolithic obelisks, giant stelae, royal tombs and the ruins of ancient palaces.

In the heart of what is now Ethiopia, you may find jungles, rivers and quite possibly some monkeys. You could also encounter some major cities, bustling full of people. And of course, you might always stumble across a 79-foot-tall obelisk. That's a possibility because Ethiopia was once home to one of the world's greatest trade-based empires, called the Kingdom of Aksum.

Cool historical artifacts. This was obviously once a great ancient civilization. Best to just pay the price for a guide because there is little to no info about anything. The museum is very limited but it comes with the price of admission.
