Top Tips
Unlike the Northwestern Group and the Southeastern Group, Bete Giorgis is a singular church dedicated to St George. |
This is the only church that is not covered and protected by a large awning, making it one of the most photogenic spots in Lalibela![]() |
Make sure the priest takes you down the trench and unlocks the church for you so that you can take a good look inside. As tempting as it may be, he does not like you to move aside the curtains, however. |
