Much like the “We Are the Future” children's center located at the heart of Addis Ababa, this city is the heart of the future for the African continent. Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital city of 2 million people, known as "Africa's Capital", is an extremely diverse and bustling city. Currently undergoing a construction boom, Addis Ababa is moving into the future at an extremely fast pace. At the same time, it is a city steeped in history - even thought by scientists to be the birthplace of humankind. Here you can view the famous fossilized skeleton of the Austrolopithecine “Lucy”, or take in more modern sites such as St. George's Cathedral and museum, erected in 1896. To the North, visit the Entoto Mountains and National Park, and to the west of the city, the Menagesha National forest.
