At the door of Bet Abba Libanos – Lalibela

Priest at the door of Bet Abba Libanos, one of many rock-hewn churches of Lalibela.

Tradition says that this church was built in 24 hours by Meskal Kebran, wife of King Lalibela, helped by angels. It may explain the fragility of the sanctuary which is cut in a more friable rock. The walls of the facade are also dangerously cracked.
