Northern Ethiopia is a land of fairy tales and legends, of holy knights and mythical queens, untold secrets and treasures hidden in the rocks. The blurred boundaries between myth, history and reality fascinate travellers and accompany them on an intriguing journey that winds its way through the most evocative localities of the Abyssinian plateau, along scenic roads and green valleys dotted with villages and bustling markets.
A 12-day itinerary in the cradle of Coptic religiosity, a granite faith that has permeated the lives of the peoples of the North for two millennia. An orthodoxy that has taken root over the centuries within the hemmed walls of Gondar’s fortresses, resisting external threats and perpetuating itself in the evocative rock churches of the small, ancient and perfectly preserved world of Lalibela and the Tigray region. These are some of the most fascinating places in Africa, and among the rushing waterfalls, impervious peaks, imperial cities with majestic palaces, richly decorated monasteries, austere castles and ancient manuscripts, they hold priceless treasures.
