| Lalibela / Main entrance to Bet Gabre'el-Rufa'el Church (The House Of Gabriel And Raphael Or The House Of The Archangels). Its disorientation and unusual plan suggest that it was originally not intended to serve as a church. Instead, the floor plan is labyrinthine: three angular halls with pillars and pilasters are squeezed between two courtyards. The most impressive part of the church is the monumental facade. The bridge to the left of the picture, crosses over a 66-ft precipice. |
