Safari | Arbaminch and Nech Sar National Park
0 out of 5If you have an interest of staying with deep nature and seeing various animals Arbaminch and Nech Sar national park is a paradise. Some animals you will see include big African Crocodiles, families of hippos, warthogs, monkeys, gazelles, ostriches, zebras , kudu and a number of bird species.
HIGHLIGHTS:
– Visit fourty springs of Arba Minch :
Arba Minch, which is Amharic for ‘Forty Springs’, is named after the innumerable little springs that bubble up right at the base of the ridge below the town. All the development (the city pumps its water from here) and the fact that it’s not especially scenic to begin with make it only worth visiting if you’ve already paid park fees. The 3km road there from the headquarters, however, is beautiful and is a good, easy walk.
– Visit Crocodile Market and hipopotamus while cruising on Lake Chamo :
Where the Kulfo River empties into Lake Chamo you’ll find oodles of crocodiles sunning themselves. Both the size of the congregation and the size of the crocs (6m is common) make this one of Africa’s best crocodile displays. There are also plenty of hippos, fish eagles and shore birds.
– Visit Nechisar National Park.
Its varied terrain spans escarpments, swamps and forest. Zebras and gazelles roam the vast savannahs of the Nechisar Plains. The large, brown-red Lake Abaya sits on the north side of the mountainous “Bridge of God” isthmus. To the south is Lake Chamo, known for its big Nile crocodiles. The park is home to many birds, including the rare Nechisar nightjar.

Stopover Tour | Trip To Washa Michael – Rock Hewn Church In Addis Ababa
0 out of 5Can’t get to Lalibela, but a want to see a Rock Hewn Church near Addis Ababa? Washa Mikael!!
The Washa Mikael Rock Hewn Church (Amharic: ዋሻ ሚካኤል [wä schä mi kä el] literally “The Cave of Michael”) is a rock-hewn semi-monolithic church located in the Yeka District of Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia. Historians and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church date it back as far as the 4th century AD pointing to its resemblance to Aksumite era churches in other regions of Ethiopia and to the Sabaen artifacts found at the site of the church. They further explain that structures in and around the church show that the area was once used as a training ground for the horsemen of the Aksumite armies of King Ezana, arguing that the area was one of the territory held by the vast Kingdom of Aksum. It is a popular tourist destination.
History
Washa Mikael church was constructed in the Shoan architectural style with some influences from the Aksumite style. Similar to the some of the churches of Lalibela, Washa Mikael is a rock-hewn semi-monolithic church.
In the 19th century, Emperor Menelik II rediscovered the structure after it was initially abandoned during the Abyssinian-Adel war. He had the Tabot of St. Michael moved from inside the church to a church he had build lower down the mountain called Yeka Mikael. He subsequently made attempts at restoring and preserving the structures of the church.
The church suffered damages during the heavy bombing campaigns of the Italians during the second Italo-Ethiopian War.
From above the church has a “U” shape also known as the letter “ሀ” in the Ethiopian Alphabet. This shape was meant to signify the Ge’ez phrase starting with the same letter, “ሀልዎቱለ ኣብ እምከድሜ ዐለም” (Halwotule ab emkdme alem) which means “Before anything existed, God was here”. The original church stood 7 meters tall and had 7 windows which represented the 7 heavens, 7 days and 7 angels.
