Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>France is working in collaboration with Ethiopia in protecting and restoring historical heritages, and human resources development in the tourism sector, Ambassador Remi Marechaux said.<\/p>\n

In an exclusive interview with ENA, French Ambassador Remi Marechaux said the \u2018Government of France is supporting Ethiopia\u2019s heritage protection preservation, restoration with the view to making Ethiopia attractive for tourists.<\/p>\n

France is currently carrying out several projects to protect and restore the historical heritage of Ethiopia, he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat was done last week with the National Museum and new archaeological collections will attract tourist from the rest of the world,\u201d the ambassador stated.<\/p>\n

Recall that President Sahle Work Zewde recently inaugurated an archaeological exhibition organized by the National Museum of Ethiopia and the Embassy of France in Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

According to Ambassador Marechaux, the virtual reality tour that promotes the Rock-Hewn Churches of Lalibela with the view to increasing tourist flow to the world heritage site is also part of the tourism development collaboration.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we did with Lalibela is the first step, because we have been involved in the preservation and restoration of the churches.\u201d<\/p>\n

The French government financial support has also made possible the renovation of the National Palace, National Museum, and the preservation of the Lalibela Rock-Hewn Churches.<\/p>\n

\u201d So, all these actions are aimed at making Ethiopia destination for tourist from the rest of the world,\u201d the ambassador said.<\/p>\n

All these projects are paid by the French government. \u201cIt is not loan, it is a contribution to the Ethiopian government, Ambassador Marechaux added.<\/p>\n

He further pointed out that the government is also training guides, because the final goal is not only to reserve the heritage but also to create jobs and develop tourism.<\/p>\n
