Timket (Epiphany)
Timket is the greatest Ethiopian religious festival. Timkat festival dates back to the legendary history of The Ark of The Covenant. It is believed by Orthodox Church and some scholars that The Ark of Israel, which they were given from God through prophet Mosses, is rested here in Axum, Ethiopia. It is primarily to glorify and commemorate the Ark and the baptism of Jesus the Christ in River Jordan that almost all Ethiopians attend during 18-20 January. During these times, the ark (the duplicate of the original ark) of every church will be seen being carried by clergy men. Attendants will wear the most favorite clothes and play (dance) in front of the Ark. This is more original in Lalibela. Sample Tours
An active volcano, Dabbahu Fissure Site, an Earth Cracking, Geological process in the Afar Triangle (Great Rift Valley).
An eruption on September 26, 2005 created a large fissure in the ground, known as the Dabbahu fissure.
When erupted, the Afar’s camels and goats were swallowed by huge flame sand ash. Being at Dabbahu Fissure is like watching a science fiction movie that you don’t think it is real!
Dabbahu Fissure is absolutely awesome!
