Addis Ababa is a city of about 4 million people. The headquarters of the African Union resides in Addis. The Africa Hall was built by Emperor Haile Selassie to serve as the headquarters of the Organization of African Unity. Up the hill from the Africa Hall is the Imperial Palace that was built in 1955. It is forbidden to take a picture of the palace and it is not open to the public.
I watched a band parade across the busy downtown intersection as festivities are gearing up for the election this month.
