National Museum of Ethiopia

The National Museum of Ethiopia in Addis Ababa offers a comprehensive overview of the country's natural, political and art histories. Visitors can easily spend a full morning or afternoon here soaking in the "edu-tainment." A cast of the bones of the Australopithecus afarensis Lucy are here of course, but so is the throne of Emperor Haile Selassie, traditional tools and textiles, and displays about Ethiopia's different tribes.
