Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>s Ababa December 28\/2021\/ENA\/ Even if some international media have been disseminating false report about havoc and conflict all over Ethiopia, we witnessed peace and have very positive expression about the country, Belgium Tourists told ENA.<\/p>\n

Francis Vandendorpe, who is visiting Ethiopia for the first time, said some media in Belgium advised citizens not to travel to Ethiopia as the entire country is engulfed in war.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe heard on the media in Belgium that it is not good to travel to Ethiopia. But someone selling coffee in our country told us Ethiopia is in peace. We trust this and came to Ethiopia. I saw really nothing here. We had very peaceful and stable trip in Ethiopia,\u201d the tourist witnessed.<\/p>\n

So, the tourist said he has \u201ca very positive impression about Ethiopia.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to him, he first went with his Belgian friend to Hawassa to visit coffee plantations. Then after they traveled to Omo valley, which is located in south eastern Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was great. There were no tourists. I think we were the only tourists at that time. We loved it really,\u201d Vandendorpe said.<\/p>\n

Moreover, it was also super to visit the National Museum where Lucy is found. he stated. \u201c We had a very nice trip during our stay here in Ethiopia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some eight of us were to come to Ethiopia, but only two of us got visa. They could not have visa. That was the problem. As soon as they get visa they will visit Ethiopia, the Belgian tourist added.<\/p>\n

The other tourist, Frederik Philibert said \u201cI am very happy to visit your country. Everybody is very friendly and open.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Belgium everybody told us not go to Ethiopia. \u201c When we came here, however, we saw that everything looks very good. It maybe in northern that there is problem, but from Addis down to the south, we didn\u2019t see anything special for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Philibert added, \u201cIt is safe to come to Ethiopia. Everything is Ok. Please come to see this country, everything is nice and peaceful.\u201d<\/p>\n
