GONDER
Gondar, founded by Emperor Fasilides in 1632 - 1676, was the capital city of Ethiopia from the rise of Fasilides to the fall of Tewodros II.
It is famous for its many medieval castles. There are six castles in the compound created by Fasilides and his successors. There are also several old churches around Gondar. The most beautiful one is the well decorated Debre Birhan Selassie. It contains the finest art of its period anywhere in Ethiopia.
Gondar is also the ideal way to explore the SEMIEN Mountains which is the only natural world heritage site in Ethiopia. In general Gondar is endowed with its diversified tourism resources including the magnificent Fasil castle and the spectacular SEMIEN Mountains. Our vision is to make Gondar the main tourist destination area in Ethiopia, and the expansion of standardized hotels plays a great role to change our vision into a reality. Drive from Bahir Dar to Gondar - the 17th century capital of Ethiopia. In the afternoon, visit the Imperial Castle Compound of Gondar (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the ‘Bath of Emperor Fasiladas’, the church of Quskuam Mariam, the residence of Empress Mintwab, and the church of Debre Birhan Sillassie which is famous for its wall and ceiling paintings.
