Amazing New Park in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. በአፍሪካ በጣም ዘመናዊው ፓርክ - ፍሬንድሺፕ።

Friendship Park, is the biggest (46.5 hectares) and most modern urban park in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The park is right next to Unity Park which holds inside it a zoo, and historical archives. The Park's construction started on October 1, 2019 and was inaugurated on September 10, 2020.
The park is located in the political center of Addis Ababa where government offices such as the Prime Minister office and the parliament are next to and close by. The park has an artificial lake, a large square to gather and also water fountain lights at nighttime. It also contains lots of flowers with diverse species of flora. The Park is considered to be the most beautiful park in Africa and it is visited by thousands of people particularly on weekends.
Addis Ababa being the seat of the African Union Commission, the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa and one of the few diplomatic cities in the world and the tourism hubs in the continent of Africa, the square will add a significant face-lift to the City.

Friendship Square brings back good memories when I was there. I love the footage. I love the music selection. This Black American loves your country of Ethiopia. I'll be back there in early July for 2 weeks. I can't wait. Watching this video, you make me miss it even more.

Beautiful park, this I love. We needed a beautiful park in Addis Ababa. Well done with this one Abiy. It is accessible to all because it is in the center of the city, it is beautiful, and people can relax. I wish you had railings for the stairs so people can safely walk up and down the steps.

And guard rails for the water edges to prevent people falling over

The square (not park) has a name in the native language. No need to hybridize the language.

[@taz09216]

Why do they charge an entrance fee when its built with public money? And its a public place

[@LawofGod]

Go and tell that your country ! That you have no brain 🧠 to figure out !

[@AddisAbabaClose-up]

I think it is because there are a lot of employees there who are paid monthly such as guards, cleaners, cashiers, gardeners and even park managers.
