The sun was setting as we left Jerusalem’s Old City. As we passed the Jaffa Gate, I noticed a couple tombs behind a metal fence. I have no idea who these are for, but would love to find out theLeggi altro

No idea who for… but they look like Ottoman tombs to me … especially this one.. Maybe that will help with researching them.

As our tour guide rounded us up for the final time, a playful kitty darted out and swatted at a man’s dangling camera strap.
I also noticed a dog during our walk today, seeing that little snoutLeggi altro

After Via Dolorosa, we made our way to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, which has been a major Christian pilgrimage destination since it was built in the 4th century AD.

You are wise to be equally respectful of each tomb: in other words, there is absolitely no reason to suppose either was the Biblical one, and sadly any evidence of an oral tradition is probably commercially distorted. One may equally revere His wise teachings anywhere on Earth, sea, sky or space. [Jezzabear]
Viaggiatore Good point! I realize there are distortions, and I do not want to offend anyone’s religious beliefs, but I’m truly in awe of all the history, even when it is unverifiable lore.

Our guide said such devices can be found all over town!

Two to Travel Did they explain that they don’t stamp passports but hand out that piece of paper because having an Israeli stamp could get you denied entry to some Arab/Middle Eastern countries in future travels. I don’t know if the reasoning is still valid, but it used to be.
Viaggiatore They didn’t tell us that, but my hubby told me that was the reason. We went to Jordan right after, so maybe it’s a good thing!
