Harar

Harar from the East corner is considered to be the fourth most sacred center of the Islamic world, a walled town, with over 360 twisting and winding alleys squeezed into 1 square kilometre, it is similar to the medinas of Morocco. Harar is the Islam capital of Ethiopia and is crammed with mosques, colorful markets, coffee shops and crumbling walls. It is colorful and photogenic and the Adare (Hariri) women’s dresses and head scarves are particularly colorful and exotic. The one thing you shouldn’t miss here is the most enduring attraction of evenings – the “a hyena man show”.
