Dangerous climb to the "Church in the Sky": Abune Yemata Guh. | Ethiopia vlog
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ม.ค. 2024
- I traveled to the Tigray region in Northern Ethiopia to make the dangerous climb to a monastery in the Gheralta mountains, called Abune Yemata Guh. It is one of the most inaccessible and hardest churches to get to. We traveled with @worldsunethiopiatours7029 to Abuna Yemata Guh, a church in the sandstone cliffs, over 8000 feet in the air. There is a priest who makes the climb every single day and he was there to show us the inside of the church.
You first have to hike for 40 minutes up the the natural rocks steps, until you reach a point where you have to take off your shoes and climb the rest straight up and barefoot. It was one of the scariest things I have ever done, but I am so happy I did it. This place is magical and very spiritual.
Along the journey, we visited the oldest mosque in Africa, ate traditional Tigrayan food, and met great Tigrayan people. This area was the center point of the Tigrayan war that lasted 2 years and started in 2020. There was so much destruction done to the area during that time, and luckily some of the heritage sites withstood the war.
Join me for a beautiful and risky adventure to the "Church in the Sky".
Abune Yemata Guh

I traveled with 2 other world traverlers: @Lostshmi and @AbuKhadijahKhadija Mansour
We owe this amazing journey to Negasi from @worldsunethiopiatours7029

Wow, no words to express your bravery. I was scared even for watching you do that. Thanks for sharing your experience. I grew up listening stories about such monasteries, but didn’t have a chance to actually see them.
Thank you so much! It was scary but so worth it!! I hope you can visit one day. It’s a very special place ❤️🙏🏼🇪🇹
@@ZannParkeri hope you had a good time❤
@@lovem7635I had such a great trip! ❤️🇪🇹
@@ZannParker Thank you 🙏 Merry Christmas to you too❤️❤️
Hello.
I am glad you experienced this adventure in some part of my home country.
I am glad you enjoyed your time.

I am Russian and i will come to visit this place and thanks for sharing good things for the world
❤ you welcome

You are always welcome it is the oldest orthodox church in that hemisphere. in the same ways, a little bit familiar to the Russian orthodox faith! but the current evil Abiy Ahemd government and his associates are trying to destroy this historicsl monument and centuries old monastery,
we need all orthodox Christians' bleivers in the world to assist us before it is disappeared which has been maintained and preserv ed by our forefathers!
Don't worry am the tour gauid for the local place of abune ymata guh church so contact me when you intended to come to Ethiopia
Made me cry when she kissed ur hand in the mosque, habesha mothers are so loving ❤
I loved it too!! She warmed my heart ❤️❤️❤️
It was pure which you don’t get in the western world
Its called church not a mosque

Tigray holds a special place in my heart among all the regions in Ethiopia. The people of Tigray are known for their overall peaceful nature, religious values, and helpful demeanor, even towards those from different regions. I find myself longing for the beauty and warmth of Tigray.

Thank you so much for visiting the anceint and historical places in Tigray.
And thank you so much for watching!! I really appreciate it ❤️❤️
You are welcome
As an Oromo boy, I think Tigrayans are the most polite and kindhearted people in the country, they just won't hold grudge for morethan a minute
Tigray people the strongest 💪 people on earth 🌎 ❤️. Deserve more peace and happiness.
They definitely deserve peace and happiness 🙏🏼
Tigray was regional province before the conflict and still is the regional province of Ethiopia! Therefore you fought for nothing!! TPLF used the youth as a human shield for the sake of power! Nothing else!!

I am from Tigray, thanks for visiting our holy place. The people of Tigray, have experienced the deadliest war that claimed the lives of over 1 million people. God bless my people, who have strong faith despite the tragedy they have faced. I love my people. Hope to visit soon. I cried the whole time, because I missed my family in Tigray.
I am so sorry, Semira!! It was a devastating war. Too many innocent lives were destroyed, and there was so much destruction in the area. I’m sorry for any loss you might’ve endured bc of it. Praying for you, the people of Tigray, and all of Ethiopian . All of these wars throughout the country need to stop. 🙏🏼🇪🇹

OMGosh! Such a beautiful, meaningful, and scary experience. I'm glad you are able to share with people from all over, and even some Ethiopians who have never been able to make the trek. I'm relieved that you zoomed through some of the breath-taking areas (the ledge) before I could get squirmy or nauseous. It's definitely considered a trip of a life time, and I appreciate being able to experience through you....because I could never do it. It was wonderful to see the locals adore you so much. You are amazing! WTG!! Love you. ❤
Thank you so much for watching momma! Yes, I decided not to tell you before I went 😅😅 I didn’t want you to worry.

@@redseayouth9119 😆😆 is there any Text even says Tigray is acountry . What are you talking about bro 🤔
But there is aplace which called Tigray where Ethiopia is born . Tigray is born place of Ethiopia at every aspect .
Every history that Ethiopia is proud of now starts from Tigray.
@@Axum-Tigray stop deluding yourself because the founder of Ethiopia is Emperor Minilik Not Emperor Yohannes! So why you want to rewrite your own version of history? If you are talking about Axum that is not solely owned history! Axum Empire history belongs to everyone including Tegaru, Amharu, Eritrea, Yemen, East Sudan! The same applies to Roman Empire, it isn't owned by those who live with in Rome or Italy only! All the regions that use to be under Roman Empire help make it the Empire it was at the time! The same applies to Greek Empire!! u understand now?
