Is there something unusual in the painting? And how Jerusalem looked like 1500 years ago? * The site is unavailable on Saturdays.
The Wall! The most famous place in Jerusalem, its heart and soul. The only place in the world where you can directly speak with God. It is the most sacred place for all Jewish people (is it really?) and the location of many important events. Don't forget to stick your note between its stones!
The Way of the Cross - Via Dolorosa
Walk along the part of the Way of the Cross, the traditional way of Jesus to the place of crucifixion.

Visit Rotunda with the Aedicule of the Holy Sepulchre and descend beneath the church to the Chapel of St. Helena to see the place of recovering of the True Cross. And also. How can six different Christian denominations manage the church together? And what would happen if to move the wooden ladder?
