Gondar - The Tourist City Without Tourists? 🏛️☕
I never planned to stay in Gondar, yet somehow I’ve spent five days here—wandering near the city center, sipping coffee, and living the slow life. ☕🚶♂️ Locals call Gondar a "tourist city," but where are the tourists? Most visit the nearby mountains with ancient churches 🏰 and playful monkeys 🐒. Honestly? I skipped the sights (even the famous "Angel Head Church"—just 800m from my hotel—was a photo I borrowed from a friend’s feed 😅). 📍Gondar Tips 🏨 Hotel Haz: 1000 ETB/night (with breakfast!). Central, clean, great service—not on Booking/Agoda (search "Haz" on Google Maps). 🍽️ Four Sister Restaurant: My first meal in Ethiopia and still the best! A must-try. 🤔 Mixed Vibes Locals greet you warmly, but their stares keep my guard up. 👀 One "friendly" local insisted I join for tea/food 🫖—after refusing, he shoved snacks into my hands. The next day? "Let’s split the bill!" 😤 (…I only took one bite.) #TravelDiaries #OffThePath #Ethiopia #Africa #SlowTravel 🌍✨
