    Chances are if you hire a local guide they will take you to a local butcher shop in a small square with birds of prey lined along the roof. You can grab scaps of meat from the shop and throw them out to the center of the square or partial one at that and watch the birds swoop down and grab the meat before the dogs are able to get to it

    There're six gates in total; two were added by the Emperor Menelink in 1889 to the four original ones which date from the 16th century. An exploration of the old walled town begins at the main gate. This is known as the Harar Gate or Duke's Gate, after the first Duke of Harar, Ras Makonnen. The nearby Shoa Gate is particularly well preserved and boasts superb mosaics. ~Lonely Planet

    This is one of the easiest Adare houses to find. It's quite near the Erer Gate. The entrance fee to the museum is 10 Birr...which consisted of 5 2 Birr tickets! It has some interesting arts and crafts.

    You can easily spend a half or full day wandering around the city. It's not big enough to get lost in but it is a bit of fun. Seems like there is a mosque or a church around every corner.
