A beautiful shrine, dedicated to Mother Mary, can be seen in front of the cathedral building.
Koterbira Eb is a very pleasant river with attractive scenery, a rocky spot and the end point of a range of hills. According to a local legend, God came here and liked it so much he decided to build a dam to add to the beauty. He was unable to complete the work and left it halfway, and that is why the rock looks like the wall of a dam. Every year a fair is organized here.
