These are pictures from Axum, Ethiopia. Many believe that the ancient Ark
of the Covenant survives in this city. The people there have a yearly
festival called Timkat to celebrate. These are pictures from Axum and
Timkat.
In addition to the pictures below, we also have a slideshow of Axum, Ethiopia.
It contains totally different pictures. If you want to watch,
