In the vibrant Tigre region of Ethiopia, a procession for the Christian festival of Rameaux fills the streets with joyous celebration. The ancient city of Axoum (Aksum) stands as a testament to Tigre's rich history, where remnants of its glorious past can still be seen today. Adua (Adwa), a historic village in Tigre, holds great significance as it was here that Menelik triumphed over Italian forces in an epic battle. As we delve deeper into this captivating land, we witness a blacksmith at work in Axoum, showcasing the skilled craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church plays an integral role in Tigre's cultural fabric. A priest engrossed in reading from an ancient text reminds us of the deep spiritual connection felt by many within this community. Meanwhile, Tigray women proudly wear crosses symbolizing their devotion to their faith. Stepping into Abi-Adi, another picturesque village nestled within Tigre's Abyssinian region, we are greeted by lively street scenes brimming with local life and traditions unique to this corner of Africa, and is here that one truly immerses themselves in the authentic essence of Tigre. Beyond Ethiopia's borders lies another place bearing the name "Tigre. " In Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, visitors can explore MAT - Art Museum and Municipal Museum of Fine Art offering glimpses into diverse artistic expressions both locally and internationally. As our journey comes full circle back to Ethiopia once more, we find ourselves amidst Christian pilgrims partaking in Easter festivities at Sainte Marie de Sion (St. Mary of Zion). The Palm Sunday procession through Axoum further exemplifies how deeply rooted religious customs are intertwined with everyday life in this enchanting region.
