The 5 Best Museums in Amhara Region, Ethiopia

April 25, 2022 Christa Meece

Amhara (Amharic: አማራ) is one of the nine ethnic divisions (kililoch) of Ethiopia, containing the homeland of the Amhara people. Previously known as Region 3, its capital is Bahir Dar. Ethiopia's largest inland body of water, Lake Tana, which is the source of the Blue Nile river, is located within Amhara. The region also contains the Semien Mountains National Park, which includes Ras Dashan, the highest point in Ethiopia. Amhara is bordered by the state of Sudan to the west and northwest, and in other directions by other regions of Ethiopia: Tigray to the north, Afar to the east, Benishangul-Gumuz to the west and southwest, and Oromia to the south.

Eyayu art gallery

Reviewed By LesleyAnnIrl

I bought a beautiful painting from Eyayu when I was in Ethiopia, full of fabulous bright colours, rich Ethiopian motifs and representations of Ethiopian rural life. Eyayu is a truly talented artist. The painting is now hanging on my wall in my home in Ireland and everyone who comes to my house admires it!

Church of Debre Sina Maryam

Reviewed By snowythepyro - London, United Kingdom

It was wonderful to step off the boat and feel like you've stepped back 500 years, but at the same time to know that this is live, active worship, happening just the same as many hundreds of years ago. That thousands of feet have stood where you're standing, absorbed by the bright mural paintings, completely focused on worship. Really special.
