Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Gonder, Gonder, Amhara Region
Gondar, located on the high plateau just north of Lake Tana. The town of Gondar was the imperial capital of Ethiopia for 200 years. Gondar’s most famous monuments are its exceptionally well preserved 17th century castles. The largest and best is that of King Fasilidas. It is a stone-built construction with round turrets and wooden balconies. This whole complex of buildings is unique in Ethiopia and unlike anything found elsewhere in Africa. On arrival, as well as visiting the castle ruins and King Fasilidas baths, we’ll also make a visit to the Debre Berhan Selassie Church famed for its ceiling frescoes of many faces.
