AKSUM: ANCIENT, TIMELESS AND ALIVE
Aksum is a cradle of Ethiopia’s ancient
civilization. Located 257 kms North West of Mekelle, the regional
capital, Aksum is an exotic tourist destination that offers a unique
combination of beguiling history, natural beauty, perfect weather,
serene environment and unmatched hospitality.
Truly, Aksum was ahead of its time.
Unlike many other states of the time, Aksumites knew how to tame
animals, cultivate cereals, mint coins and curve extraordinary obelisks
the likes of which are unknown to humankind. They accepted Christianity
early on, developed their unique alphabet and created a peculiar system
of composing and chanting religious hymns. Indeed, Aksum was the most
inventive state of its time. Shaped and reshaped by profound faith,
sophisticated administration, boundless prosperity and artistic and
engineering brilliance, Aksum is an ancient Ethiopian city that once
shone over the expansive territory that stretches from the fertile
highlands of eastern Africa to the barren deserts of southern Arabia. In
terms of its sanctity as well as greatness of its empire, Aksum is like
Jerusalem and Rome combined. In essence, Aksum is faith, holiness,
history and tranquility all wrapped in one
