Seeing all the Sights of Ancient Axum
Let's see - did anything special happen at breakfast - oh, they didn't have brewed coffee so I skipped it and had an extra juice. The juice here has been excellent.
We started off with the Stelae and Archeological Museum- which we could see below from our hotel patio high on the hill . First we looked at the stelae. The biggest one is …
Drive to Axum through Simien Mountains
I had a bad night last night. My blanket and bedspread left my bed and my sheet was virtually wrapped around my neck. I was cold. I gathered them all up again and straightened them, but the blanket and bedspread left again. I woke up a little before 6 with a scratchy throat. When I went down to breakfast I got my coffee and had some bread but …

Med Axum er vi nået tilbage til Etiopiens første hovedstad. Her finder vi en pedant til Jellingestenene. Der er også ruinerne af hvad nogle mener er Dronningen af Saba's palads. Den arkæologiske viden peger dog nok nærmere mod en rigmands villa. Dronningen af Saba anses som moderen til den etiopiske kongeslægt. Med Kong Salomon fik hun sønnen …
Indiana Jones should have come here for the Ark
It's now 6:00AM and the air is cool - I am awakening by the chanting from Lalibela's Churches. I see a cluster of people in white as I peer through the windows. The landscape is peaceful. The mood is very spiritual. Ethiopians are very religious people.
It's now 7:30AM - I am on the bus heading for Axum (Aksum). I cannot help but notice …
More old stuff, on the road to Axum
Friday we drove back through the awesome scenery of the Gheralta (also where we encountered some of the nicest/friendliest people yet...I'll need to make it back there some day!) to Wukro, and the Wukro Kristos cave church.

TravelPod Member ReviewsYeha Hotel Aksum
I stayped here for one night. The reason I have choosen this hotel, because of its location, overlook the Stelae Park and St. Mary of Zion.
The view is over-rated. I could not see anything because trees blocked the view.
Staff are not friendly.
Rooms are old and run down with broken funitures, saggy mattress, broken bathroom fixtures.
To make it worse, rooms here are over priced.
I guess, they don't care to please anyone at all!!!
If there is a ZERO, I would give them that.
