Description
In the picture above the altar we can read: "Ny Teny Tonga Nofo" which is translated to "The Word became flesh". It is quite possible this is the Anglican Church in Andohalo, the Ambohimanoro Cathedral. This stone church was built in 1882-1889 by a Norwegian engineer named Alfred Anker.
