MUSCAT, Jan 21 - For Ethiopia, the Muscat Festival has proved a platform for showcasing its culture, including crafts and folklore, as well as its famous coffee.
The Embassy of Ethiopia has been participating in the festival at Amerat Park for the first time.
Visitors entering the pavilion get to watch a video that describes what the African nation, with a diverse landscape and culture, has on offer for tourists.
Guests can taste the distinctive coffees that have been carefully selected and blended. Ethiopia’s coffee has been ranked among the best in the world.
Coffee production in Ethiopia is a longstanding tradition which dates back to dozens of centuries.
Ethiopian Embassy Corner has several publications that give insights into the wildlife of Ethiopia, which includes some rare species of animals. Its leather products are considered among the finest.
Visitors learnt about the investment opportunities in different fields, including tourism and business, from Ruqaya, a senior official at the Ethiopian Embassy.
According to the Muscat Municipality, organisers of the festival, more than 300 men, women and children participated in the Heritage Contest at Amerat Park. It saw models of bedouin, urban and agricultural environments as well as rare artifacts and historical manuscripts.
On the sidelines of the exhibition is a historical exhibition that tells the history of each wilayat. It contains manuscripts and documents dating back to the reign of Imam Sultan bin Saif.
