26. Harar: A different Ethiopia





Harar is on the East of Ethiopia, close to Djibouti and Somalia. There is no direct flight, so we went to Dire Dawa and then by car to Harar.

The main interest for us about Harar (besides the Hyena-man, see a later post) was to see a different Ethiopia, and to get another piece of the puzzle of different peoples that composes the country.

There is not much to see from the Historical or Architectural point of view. Harar is a busy city, where people is going to trade their goods, and do not care much about "faranji".
