Stay : 3-DAY TOUR OF LALIBELA'S CHURCHES
Flight to Lalibela on Ethiopian Airlines, 700 km north of Addis Ababa. Visit Lalibela's magnificent rock-hewn churches, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This complex of eleven monolithic and semi-monolithic structures was carved directly into the stone of the mountainside at least 800 years ago. The complex houses the world's largest monolithic church, a labyrinth of passages and tunnels, intricately carved reliefs and fabulous examples of icon painting.
