After a nice climb up a rock, the church of Debre Tsion is located right at the edge of the cliff, with some marvellous frescoes inside the extensive church.
Fortunately, the priest had been with us almost from the beginning, as he had apparently also heard the rumour of faranji climbing to his church. It was only at the top of the mountain, when the keys came out, that the priest and his helpers started to make some trouble about the entrance fee. Even though there is a fixed price for entrance in the Gheralta churches, they still tried to get a huge tip on top of it before even considering to get the key out. After we had solved this annoying episode in the never ending faranji-money story, we could finally get in. It was worth the hassle.
