4th century Ad rock hewn church "The Cave of Michael") is a rock-hewn semi-monolithic church located in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Historians and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church date it back as far as the 4th century AD pointing to its resemblance to Aksumite era churches in other regions of Ethiopia and to the Sabaean artifacts found at the site of the church. They further explain that structures in and around the church show that the area was once used as a training ground for the horsemen of the Aksumite armies of King Ezana, arguing that the area was one of the territory held by the vast Kingdom of Aksum. It is a popular tourist destination.
While hiking to the church you will enjoy the beaut...

Addis Ababa
The Washa Michael is a rock hewn church in Addis Ababa. This monolithic church is more than one thousand six hundred years old. And it was made by two Ethiopian kings whose name were Ezana and Sayzana and ltaer called ABRAHA and ATSB'HA about 320A.D.
It is excavated from one huge solid rock and If you’re mad and not planning to visit the churches at Lalibela or Tigray in the north, this is definitely worth a peek as an example of the extraordinary rock-hewn architecture that Ethiopia is so famous for.
