Here is in the Church of the Holy Seplechure. It is a gigantic Church getting additions every century for the last 15. This small building in it is about the size of a gas station. The building stands where Jesus is supposed to have been laid in the Tomb (and you can enter one at a time and pray for about 15 seconds).
This is half of a beautiful painting just as you walk into the Church of the Holy Seplechure. It pans across through time segments (ie. Jesus coming off the cross, Preparation of Jesus' body, Jesus rising...)
This was in the front door of one of the markets in the Old City. I smiled at first but now I'm not sure what to think.
Here is a shot down a market street. Many are like this one only much more crowded, narrow, and not exposed to the sun overhead. This is a very comfortable market street.
This is a picture of the remains in the Old City. Lots of stone pillars, cobblestone, and block stone used in the construction of the Old City (obviously no metal siding then). Very imposing and archaic, Leither compared it to much of older Italy.
