About Lalibela

Lalibela is a metropolis in Amhara Region, Ethiopia famous for its rock-reduce monolithic church buildings. The whole of Lalibela is a huge antiquity of the medieval and put up-medieval civilization of Ethiopia. Lalibela is considered one of Ethiopia's holiest cities, 2nd best to Axum, and a center of pilgrimage. Unlike Axum, the population of Lalibela is nearly absolutely Ethiopian Orthodox Christian.

Ethiopia turned into one of the earliest countries to undertake Christianity in the first half of the fourth century, and its historic roots date to the time of the Apostles. The churches themselves date from the 7th to 13th centuries, and are traditionally dated to the reign of the Zagwe king Gebre Mesqel Lalibela.

The format and names of the fundamental buildings in Lalibela are widely accepted, mainly by means of neighborhood clergy, to be a symbolic representation of Jerusalem. This has led a few professionals to date the modern church bureaucracy to the years following the seize of Jerusalem in 1187 with the aid of the Muslim chief Saladin. Lalibela is placed in the North Wollo Zone of the Amhara Region, at roughly 2,500 metres above sea level. It is the primary town in Lasta woreda, which turned into previously a part of Bugna woreda. The Rock-Hewn Churches have been d a World Heritage web site in 1978.
