Ethiopia, Lalibela, Bete Giyorgis (St. George Church)

Bete Giyorgis (in Amharic) or The Church of Saint George is one of eleven rock-hewn monolithic churches in Lalibela.
A monolithic church or rock-hewn church is a church made from a single block of stone. Because freestanding rocks of sufficient size are rare, such edifices are usually hewn into the ground or into the side of a hill or mountain.
