Discover an ancient christian culture
Coptic ancient churches, remarkable palaces and untameable nature! You travel south from Rift Valley along a pearl band of beautiful lakes. By local scheduled bus you reach small towns and villages in the mountains. You stay with the Gamo people in the village Solla and learn how to weave their traditional textiles. This is guaranteed to be a tourist free place. You continue to the highlands in northern Ethiopia, to the Coptic churches, to buildings from Ethiopia’s days of glory. Ethiopia became Christian already in the 4th century.
