Debre Libanos
Its one of the ancient and historical monastery in Ethiopia, Which is lying on northwest of Addis Ababa. The monastery was founded in the 13th century by Saint Tekle Haymanot, according to tradition; he meditated in a cave for 29 years. The monastery complex sits on a terrace between a cliff and the gorge of one of the tributaries of the Abbay River. None of the original buildings of Debre Libanos survive, although David Buxton suspected "there are interesting things still to be found among the neighbouring cliffs." Current buildings include the church over Tekle Haymanot's tomb, which Emperor Haile Selassie ordered constructed in 1961; a slightly older Church of the Cross, where Buxton was told a fragment of the True Cross is preserved; and five religious schools
Portuguese Bridge
Portuguese bridge near Debre Libanos was erected by the Portuguese in the 16th century; it was actually built at the turn of the 19th century by Ethiopians, albeit in the old Portuguese style. The narrow span makes a pretty picture and the gushing (in the rainy season) cascade just below it is even more impressive

5.00I had a wonderful experience traveling to the Abey with Danakil Tours. The entire trip was very well planned, smooth, and hassle-free. From accommodation to transport and sightseeing, everything was handled professionally, which allowed us to truly enjoy the beauty of the Ethiopia without any stress. A special mention to our guide Aby, who made the trip even more memorable. He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. He explained the history and importance of places like the Cellular Gondar in a very engaging way and ensured that everyone in the group was comfortable and enjoying the tour. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I would highly recommend Danakil Tours to anyone planning an Ethiopia trip. Excellent service, well-organized tours, and a fantastic guide like Aby truly make all the difference.
Perfect day trip from Addis – a mix of history and peaceful nature

5.00I did this day trip from Addis Ababa and it turned out to be one of the most relaxing days of my trip. The monasteries were really beautiful and had a calm, spiritual feeling to them. The scenery along the way was just as good—green landscapes, fresh air, and a nice break from the busy city. It was well planned and didn’t feel rushed at all.
Spectacular view ,hundreds of babbon and with expert guide
