Within walking distance from Axum you can find a mysterious lioness etched in a rock; this is the area where the stelae of Axum were carved out.
Axum is one of the historically most important places in Ethiopia, and holds several major sights within the modern-day town. But within walking distance from Axum, you can visit several other interesting sites. Although a bicycle would have been a faster option, I decided to walk out of Axum, to the south, passing the ancient palace of the Queen of Sheba and the stelae field of Yodit. Continuing in a pleasant landscape of fields where peasants work the land, a small lake, all surrounded by hills, you will know when you come close to the ancient quarry: several youngsters offer themselves as guides.
