Abuna Yemata Guh is a monolithic church carved into a cliffside in the Tigray region of Ethiopia, near the town of Hawzen. Known for its breathtaking location and perilous access, the church requires visitors to undertake a challenging climb involving steep ascents, narrow ledges, and a final vertical rock face. Despite the demanding journey, the site rewards climbers with stunning frescoes and religious artifacts dating back to the 5th century.
