"Bet Amanuel" Top 5 Page for this destination Lalibela Things to Do Tip by SirRichard

This is the only "independent" church in this group, I mean all the rock around has been removed and the church stands alone in a courtyard.
It has a marvellously carved facade, all the details you see on it are carved from the rock, none added afterwards! It is the finest example of Axumite style probably.
