  • UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE CHURCHES OF LALIBELA.

The churches are excavated from a sloping mass of red volcanic scoria under laid by dark grey basalt and interconnected by a maze of tunnels and passages with openings to hermit caves and catacombs the rock-hewn churches give the impression of an underground city. But not only have the rock-churches survived until today. Something far older has, too.

  • YEMREHANNA KRISTOS CHURCH.

Inside the cave, a beautiful church presents itself, built the traditional way (not like the churches of Lalibela) this church is laid out on a foundation of Africa Olive Wood. While the main structure is a combination of wooden and granite struts.

  • ASHETON MARYAM MONASTERY CHURCH.

A popular goal for a day-trip, the Asheton Maryam Monastery
is one of the highest in Ethiopia, set at an elevation of almost 3700m to the southeast of Lalibela.
