Day two in Ethiopia brought unexpected challenges as I navigated through language barriers while attempting to communicate with the locals, most of whom spoke Amharic, a language unfamiliar to me. Despite this initial hurdle, the day unfolded into a delightful adventure filled with enriching experiences.
Exploring three distinct areas-Meskel Square, the Mexico area, and the bustling Merkato market, reputed as the largest open-air market in Africa-offered a glimpse into the vibrant soul of Addis Ababa.
While cautioned about safety concerns in the Mexico area, I ventured forth with curiosity and found warmth and hospitality in the locals, who generously shared insights and directions, dispelling any apprehensions I may have had.
The ambiance at Merkato Market was equally inviting, with friendly faces eager to connect despite the language barrier that occasionally hindered our communication.
Join me on this captivating journey through Ethiopia by watching my video. Your support in liking, commenting, and sharing would greatly contribute to the growth of my channel. And if you haven't already, consider subscribing for more adventures!
Here's the link to my first day in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia for those who may have missed it. #ethiopia #addisababa #travelvlog

​@@thedolamitechannel2756If you go to Asia , people don't speak English, but their own language. So, there's nothing new here. Not speaking Engish when you're living in your own country is not abnormal. I have to China and Thailand. This's normal.

I'm Ethiopian living in Addis Ababa, it's fascinating that I'm learning why Mexico area is named Mexico that I never knew before. Thank you for that but the exact mexico square is right in front of the small park you showed. It's not your fault though. Very nice video thank you for your positive energy.

Merkato is a place where everything is sold and distributed to other cities. If you know where to look, you can find anything. It is a very wide area with a work force of thousands of people.

Grass is part of a coffee ceremony, and it implies festivity. They apply it at entrances to cafes and restaurants to remind you of having a good time. Sort of

Oromo Cultural Center is so good. The Oromo Nation spans between Central Ethiopia to Northern Kenya then all the way to Tana River County kwa Coast. Fascinating Stuff. Make sure to book a visit when you can.

Part of Mexico Square was utilised during the construction of the road that passes there and the light train line. There's is a huge roundabout there which area was part of the square. That's the information I got from a local.

Can you use Google and translate it to Amharic from English so you can communicate with Ethiopians who don't speak English.

It is more of a roundabout rather than a square. The Mexico roundabout was the one to your left from the place you stood. The whole nearby area is also called Mexico area. So it is understandable if there is a confusion.

We thank you for showing us the beauty of Addis Ababa through your own efforts. If you had found someone to help you, I have no doubt that you would have shown us a more beautiful areas in Addis, for example, you showed part of Mexiko Squar, not the main Mexiko Sauer. The main mexiko Squer is more beautiful than you showing us, I mean It would have been even more beautiful if you had seen the main Mexiko square nearby. Try again if you can from Main Mexiko Square to Adwa Square throgh Churchel road. I hope you will be amazed more than what you have been seen it. Not only that, there are many more beautiful areas than you have been shown us in Addis. You need someone to help you. However, if you pay the tourist offices some money, they can show you a lot of beautiful places in Addis, late as try it.

Brother where did you get that information on 6;00 Meskel (መስቀል) means the cross of Jesus Christ that square never called Steven Squere check your facts
@travelwithkim
@travelwithkim Месяц назад
The square used to be called Stephen Square, but in early 1950 , it was renamed to Meskel square (Cross square as you rightly called it). In 1974, following the fall of the monarchy, Meskel Square was renamed Revolution Square (Abiyot Adebabay). After Mengistu Haile Mariam fled Ethiopia in May 1991, the government of General Tesfaye Gebre Kidan restored the original name of Meskel Square. In 2020, Adidd Ababa minicipality announced plans to upgrade the square, and by June 2021, the upgrade was completed.

@@travelwithkim Meskel square is a place where the 'Demera' celebration is held, which is the eve of 'Meskel' Holiday. That has been going since Hailesilasie I. St. Stephen church is also nearby, right across HAYAT REGENCY Hotel. (You would have reached it if you crossed the street in front of you, as opposed to you crossing the one to your left)

The Name ' Mexico Squere' is given in honer of Mexico who supported Ethiopia at second Ethio-Italy war not at the time of Menlik rather at the time of Emperor Haileselasie after the formation of league of Nations. Brother check your facts before your public Utterances you are misinforming your followers

It’s ridiculous there’s no food to eat they’re borrowing money from foreign governments in the name of Ethiopia but building the government ethnic group separate cultural center? What’s that supposed to mean this’s why Ethiopians are fighting one ethnic domination is illegal either Oromo’s have to have their own country inside Ethiopia only one ethnic can’t use the nation money to benefit only one group. I hope Oromo’s will go start their own country the rest of Ethiopia will live peacefully
