Lalibela Tour Review

Image result for The legend of Lalibela
Ruler Gudit was conceived in Lasta (Agew area) close Lalibela. Her dad was a Felasha (Beta Israel or Jewish) lord called Gideon. It is said that around then the Felashas declined to pay expenses to the Aksumite kingdom and the ruler of Aksum sent troops to the Felasha districts and constrained them to pay charges. The Aksumites attacks disappointed the Felashas. In tenth century, Ruler Gudit joined the Felashas, and walked on Aksum to attempt to expel Christianity and the Aksumite tradition from Ethiopia for the last time. She pulverized Aksum, toppled and murdered the Ruler and Rulers finishing the Aksumite kingdom. This prompted to the ascent of the "Zagwe Tradition". Ruler Gudit is recognized as underhanded and a destroyer of chapels. This time of history is referred to in Ethiopian custom as "end of the principal thousand years".

Taking after Ruler Gudit's battle against Aksum, Marara Teklehaimanot formally established the "Zagwe Tradition" in 1137. He turned into the principal Zagwe Ruler and ruled from Lasta. In 1270, the Zagwe Administration finished and Yekuno Amlak took the royal position and reestablished the "Solomonic Line".

Lalibela remains on delicate red volcanic shake and was initially known as Roha. It was later renamed Lalibela when Lord Lalibela was credited with building the stone cut houses of worship there in the twelfth century. Lalibela is currently viewed as one of the best Ethiopian structural ponders and is positioned the eighth most unbelievable recorded site on the planet by UNESCO. Aksum and Lalibela have in like manner structural and stone works, which delineate Ethiopian civilisation at incredible length.

In Lalibela there are 11 places of worship cut out of strong red volcanic shake, which are developed to speak to Jerusalem. The houses of worship are separated into Northern and Eastern gatherings of holy places by a stone cut channel (stream) called Yordannos (Jordan Waterway) and associated by slender and profound sections. Bieta Medhane Alem is the biggest and most great solid church. Of all the houses of worship, Bieta Giyorgis (Holy person George) is especially staggering and delightful, arranged separated from alternate places of worship toward the west, unpredictably cut into the state of a cross. All the houses of worship are still utilized as spots of love.
