The baths where the Ethiopian Orthodox Epiphany is celebrated

We left the Imperial Citadel and went northwest on the road to Bahar Dar, we were just 2 miles away when we aw a rectangular wall that covered an interesting compound. We crossed a wooden gate and saw an old man who was the "guardian" , after a short chat we entered, and saw a tiny building in the "Gondarino style" which had a pair of 2-story towers at the foot that opens a pond or "pool" of about 3,000 square meters, which were the famous baths of Emperor Fasilidas. There are trees in the room, aware of the beauty of the place and merges with the stone wall achieving a magical mixture. The Ethiopian Orthodox Epiphany is celebrated here, known locally as Timkat.
