Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 1999 Photograph by Jodi Cobb A cluster of ornate
umbrellas enlivens a dreary day in Addis Ababa as a crowd of people
lines up outside a church.

At 8,000 feet (2,400 meters) above sea level, Ethiopia's capital city
is the highest in Africa. The population is almost evenly split between
Christians, living in the highlands, and Muslims inhabiting the
lowlands.

Beauty," January 2000, National Geographic magazine)    RELATED
