About Lalibela
Lalibela is a highland town in northern Ethiopia, famous for eleven medieval churches carved down into solid rock and still used for worship.
Lalibela stands at about 2,500 metres in the Lasta mountains of northern Ethiopia. Its eleven churches were cut from the red volcanic rock in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, traditionally under King Lalibela, and UNESCO has listed the site since 1978. The freestanding ones were carved downward from the surface, roof first. The cross-shaped Biete Giyorgis stands alone in a deep pit, and Biete Medhane Alem is among the largest.
