🌍

文化的背景

The 'Autobus Tera' is a microcosm of Ethiopia. You will hear dozens of languages and see people from every ethnic group. It's a place where the country's diversity is most visible. The 'Autobus Tera' in Mercato is one of the busiest places in Africa. It is famous for its 'Weyala' (conductors) who have a unique, rhythmic way of shouting destinations. Ethiopians are generally very helpful with directions. If you ask 'Autobus Tera yet new?', don't be surprised if someone walks you part of the way to ensure you don't get lost. The concept of 'Tera' (taking turns) is a fundamental social value in Ethiopia, applied to everything from water collection to coffee ceremonies and transport.
