Ethiopia/Debark (Beautiful colorful markt 2015) Part 10
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries. See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
Debark:
Debarq (Debark, Amharic ደባርቅ) is a town in northern Ethiopia, 90 kilometers north of Gondar on the highway between Gondar and Axum and in the Semien Gondar Zone of the Amhara Region. It has a latitude and longitude of 13°08′N 37°54′E and an elevation of 2850 meters above sea level.Debarq is the closest town to the Semien Mountains National Park, and is the location of the park headquarters.
Debarq's prosperity was due to its location on the Gondar-Massawa trade route; it is one of the stations on a route of the 1840s, according to a list compiled by Antoine Thomson d'Abbadie in his Geodesie d'Ethiopie. Richard Pankhurst notess that by the early 19th century its market was important enough to be one of six in Ethiopia requiring a nagadras (head of the market) to oversee it and collect the fees.The revenue from taxes levied on the marketplace in the 1830s paid the governor of Semien province 3,000 Maria Theresa Thalers and about as much to the nagadras.
During a clash with his rebellious nephews, Emperor Tewodros saw his close friend and advisor John Bell killed in battle here in 1860. Although his nephews were killed in the skirmish, and their 1700 followers immediately surrendered, he extracted vengeance the next day by beheading all of their men.
The Tigrayan People's Liberation Front launched an offensive against the 603rd Army Corp of the Derg, and after destroying the government forces stationed at Debarq, they controlled the town 3 January 1989.
Based on figures from the Central Statistical Agency, in 2005 Debarq has an estimated total population of 74,997, of whom 31,850 were males and 33,147 were females. The 1994 census reported this town had a total population of 24,474 of whom 6,235 were males and 8,239 were females. It is the largest settlement in Debarq woreda.

Ethiopia - Market in Debark: struggle for a living
People at the market in Debark, a town in North West Ethiopia, are waiting to sell their minimal stock, struggling for a living. Owners of sewing machines have put their business in the middle of the street making clothes. Trucks pass through the middle of the market on their way to the mountains.
Debark (ደባርቅ) is located 90 kilometers north of Gondar on the highway between Gondar and Axum and in the Semien Gondar Zone of the Amhara Region.
We visited Ethiopia on our overland trip by car (a Toyota LandCruiser 4WD campervan) from the Netherlands to South Africa and South America; see our channel for hundreds of clips. More clips of Ethiopia can be found here: Enjoy more markets by playing the clips in this playlist:

Around 350 Km road travels from Shire to Gondar is very interesting. Road travels from 6000 ft to 10000 ft height. Most of the road is untarred. Some part is getting newly constructed. This is a interior part of northern Ethiopia. Only one bus travels in a day, takes 12 hours.It needs expert driver to drive through very narrow untarred road in steep high mountain. Road passes by Simien mountain range.
