Last Supper in Lalibela, Ethiopia

Nestled in the northern foothills of Ethiopia is the remote small town of Lalibela. It’s considered one of the holiest places in the world, especially during the all-important Easter week celebrations. David takes in all the rituals and traditions, which date back over 1000 years, as he visits the beautiful monolithic churches, carved directly into the stone. A big part of Easter for the orthodox people of Lalibela is the 'breaking of the fast' after a 55 day period of Lent. David helps prepare for the traditional feast, with a visit to the huge Easter market, the slaughter, and finally, the preparations of the delicious meal which the entire family comes out to enjoy.
