Amhara Region possesses many natural wonders, including a mountainous national park with the country's highest peak and largest inland body of water--which just happens to be the source of the Blue Nile. A tour of Amhara Region reveals an area with a rich history and plenty of cultural attractions, including a World Heritage-listed rock-hewn church, a 17th-century palace designed with European and Moorish influences, and Orthodox monasteries located along the shores of Lake Tana.
