The rock-hewn church of Abune Yemata in the Gheralta Mountains near Guh is renowned for its truly remarkable murals depicting Old and New Testament scenes and Saints. The interior of the church has four free-standing and six non-free standing columns, all of which are colourfully decorated. Carved into a cliff face with a sheer drop of 800 to 1,000 feet, Abune Yemata church is reached only by a hazardous ascent with tiny footholds and irregular hand grips.
