Abuna Yemata Guh is a monolithic church located in the Tigray Region, Ethiopia. It is situated at a height of 2,580 metres (its entrance is highlighted by a white circle) and has to be climbed on foot to reach. It is notable for its architecture, dome & wall paintings dating back to the 5th century.

That is so fascinating! There are churches cut down into solid rock in Ethiopia.
