Travel to Ethiopia

In celebration of our upcoming trip to Ethiopia, the World Affairs Council of Greater Houston is hosting a traditional Ethiopian dinner with Gezahgen Kebede, Honorary Consul General of Ethiopia. Experience traditional Ethiopian cuisine in Houston!

Join the World Affairs Council of Greater Houston in exploring the rich history of Ethiopia as you dive into the commercial and cultural hub of the country’s capital, Addis Ababa, and its surroundings. Admire Ethiopian art, religion, and prehistoric artifacts while appreciating the country’s Christian influence and the symbolic Timkat festival of Ethiopian Epiphany. You will discover astounding architectural landmarks in 12th century rock-hewn churches and 17th century castles which accentuate traditions of the Kingdom of Aksum and the Arabian Peninsula. Enjoy a trip through historic baths and swimming pools, Lake Tana, and Blue Nile falls.
