Beta Gabriel and Rafael is a different church for structure and orientation. It was perhaps an aristocratic palace. An extraordinary entrance that overrides a stream carved into the rock and then a stone tunnel to access the courtyard that is 16 meters below. Monumental facade, tall pillars, arches, niches, arabesqued windows. Two wells, hell and heaven, where the monks collect water. - See the Ethiopia map with a complete picture set.
