Portuguese Bridge

It is an ancient Bridge made of rock with two arches. The Bridge was built by Portuguese soldiers in the 16th century. However, some historians claim that Ras Darge actually built the Portuguese Bridge in the 19th Century. This is also a chance to have a nice view on Jemma River Gorge (a branch of Blue Nile) and to see plenty of birds and Gelada - a type of endemic baboons.

We left Addis Ababa in the morning with our guide Alex. We began with a guided tour of the Debre Libanos monastery. It's a place steeped in history, which our guide Alex was great at explaining to us. We then had lunch in a place with a magnificent view, and finished with a walk (about 1h) to the protuguese bridge. The walk was magnificent, and so was the landscape. We highly recommend this day with Addis Authentic Tours. Many thanks to Alex and Mulu for the organization.

I had a lay over in Addis Ababa. So I decided to get out of town for a day trip. Alex meet me at the Skylight Hotel at 8am and we headed north. Had a amazing tour and saw so many wonderful things. Lunch was great with the best view in Ethiopia. Highly recommend.
