waterfall, interesting place
Although the name Blue Nile is a well recognized name
throughout the world, in Ethiopia however, it's called
Abay (Abbai). Accordingly, the Blue Nile Falls are
referred to as Abay Foafoate. Tis Issat is an additional
name given to the Blue Nile Falls.
Tis Issat means Smoking Water.
Nowadays the water is redireted towards an hydropower station, sothat the waterfalls are not very tremendous anymore, most of the time.
