BE AWARE! Do not take pictures of the military base next door - you can get in a lot a lot a lot of trouble. Also Massive Turtles!!! Just walking around outside eating the grass. Very docile but big. The church is cool too - Salasie's daughter is buried here - Ethiopia's first female nurse (or at least registered nurse)
Wonderful to follow God
Menelik Ⅱ,one of the greatest emperor of Ethiopia was buried here along with his wife and daughter. And it is said that a Michelangelo painting was locked in this monastery.
