Entoto Beth Artisan
Entoto / Shiro Meda$$⏱ 30-60 min
A social enterprise on the road up Entoto where women — many of them former patients and outcasts who carried water up the mountain — handcraft striking jewelry from recycled artillery shells and bullet casings. Every purchase funds jobs and dignity, and the pieces are genuinely beautiful, not pity-buys.
☀️ Local tip
Combine with a trip up to Entoto Park or the Entoto Maryam church; ask the staff about the story behind the beads.
