4 reviews of The Blue Nile Falls

Beautiful and splendid

The Blue Nile Falls, or Tis Abaya in the Marina language (Smoke of Water), is one of those dreamy mythical places when you read stories about early explorers and discoverers. Namely, Pedro Paez, one Alcarrenian born in 1564 in a village in the now Community of Madrid. He was the first "modern" European there. He was a Jesuit missionary, who became an expert in indigenous languages ​​and culture, and was lucky enough to know the source of the Blue Nile in 1613. It seems that little has changed in these places. Well now there's a dam generating electricity just above the falls, making the country's wealth dwindle.

But the donkey road runs parallel to the Abbai River that runs between hard volcanic rocks hard. It's the path on which we started, and later crossed the Portuguese bridge and kept walking with Amhara, who was going to market with his goods (butter, honey). Until, after climbing a small hill, we began to hear the sound of water, the sound of magical waterfalls. The noise gradually got louder until we saw one of them. We moved forward and there they were. It was believed that they were the source of the Blue Nile (located nearby, on Lake Tana). It was magnificent and brown because it was the rainy season and the river was dragging mud and silt, but also beautiful and splendid.
