Picture of the day: a minute at Awash National Park

Today's picture of the day features beautiful Awash National Park. It was send to us by one of our readers, whom we would like to thank from the bottom of our heart. 

Established in 1966, the Awash National Park is one of the National Parks of Ethiopia. Located at the southern tip of the Afar Region, this park is 225 kilometers east of Addis Ababa (and a few kilometers west of Awash). Its southern boundary along the Awash River, and covers at least 756 square kilometers of acacia woodland and grassland. The Addis Ababa - Dire Dawa highway passes through this park, separating the Illala Saha Plains to the south from the Kudu Valley to the north. In the south of the park the Awash River gorge has amazing waterfalls. In the upper Kudu Valley at Filwoha are hot springs amid groves of palm tree.

Enjoy these amazing pictures and have a great Saturday Night!
