Hidden in a cave, Yemrehanna Kristos church holds more secrets than you would think at first glance.
The last stretch of road up to Yemrehanna Kristos was not all easy: the road deteriorated as we got closer. After we left the car behind, we walked up a mountain that was completely covered by a lovely juniper forest. Soon after leaving the car, we were approached by a multitude of people who were either blind, or missing a limb, had a seriously swollen neck, or other handicaps. In front of the church, we found a small opening in the woods, and a lovely waterfall spraying down from a rocky edge lushly overgrown with bright green vegetation. Unfortunately, a protective wall has been built which completely obscures the church from sight.
