Don't miss this church when you go to Gondar! The ceiling with Angel heads with wings is worth the trip alone, the eyes follow you around. Also great are the paintings, many gruesome ones of saints being tortured and a big devil eating people. Look for the embarrassing painting of the prophet Mohammed being led away on a camel to Hell!
I like this church love ethop
Very holy church
One of the best Ethiopian church.
Beatiful! Intrigueing building with great paintings inside.
Beautiful church, thatched roof. Amazing paintings inside, angels on the roof. Look out for Satan! Women who are menstruating or had sex the day before visiting are not allowed to enter the church. There is a separate door for each sex. Nice quiet shady area around the church. High walls in the Gondar style. A bit off the beaten track, but within walking distance of the castle and piazza.
I have visited this church twice and I will visit it again. For me the most beautiful church in the world.
Great to recall African religious footage.
i loved every bit of it. it tells not only history but who we really are. proud to be ethiopian.
Impressive church. Charges for tourists were doubled to 100 Birr (5 USD) Mike sure you hire a guide in town before if you are interested in the history of the church because at the church there are usually no English speaking guides
