Had the pleasure of visiting this place a few days ago. I will never forget the people, the architecture and atmosphere. Ethiopia is truly not spoken enough about, in my opinion.

I spent three months in Ethiopia on a Medical Mission and was so very blessed to have seen Lalibela. It is truly a holy site. As many Christians make pilgrimage to Israel, this place, too, should be a place of pilgrimage for all Christians around the world! The Coptic Christians here are such a beautiful people. I have been privileged to break bread with many Ethiopians who are some of the most devoted people of Christianity. They are a lovely, spiritual family of God and Jesus Christ. I wish I could return to Ethiopia even today. Despite all the horrible atrocities done to the people here, they are still loving and forgiving.

I am Ethiopian Muslim I have so much love and respect for my Ethiopian Christian brother and sister. If only the world understand religion the way Ethiopians understand they would be no fighting for religion

Ethiopian here! Thank you so much for showing the world about our old history.

Once Nelson Mandela said that,..." Ethiopia always has a special place in my imagination and the prospect of visiting Ethiopia attracted me more strongly than a trip to France, England, and America combined. I felt I would be visiting my own genesis, unearthing the roots of what made me an African." It is very true . ! It worth it to visit this old beautiful land Ethiopia.
