One of the major sights of Ethiopia, Debre Birhan Selassie church lives up to your expectations as an extraordinarily beautiful church.
The walk to Debre Birhan Selassie church is easy and pleasant, going through suburbs of the former capital of Gonder. After buying your ticket outside the walls of the church, be sure to locate the priest; even here, the doors remain closed unless there are visitors. When the white-robed priest finally opens the doors on three sides of the church, a splendid spectacle opens before your eyes. As daylight reaches the walls and the ceiling, it makes your jaw drop. Bright coloured and well preserved scenes from the Bible on the walls, and the wooden ceiling completely covered by winged cherubic faces.
