Exploring Jerusalem....continued...

One has to go up on the hills behind Jerusalem to get a good view of the city....

This time the gate entered was the Zion Gate....

which allows traffic......
and then on to the Cardo..... not quite as impressive as the Cardo at Jerash in Jordan!


Next ......the Jewish quarter......

The Western ( Wailing) wall....

We of course as females had to go on one side of a barrier.......
...but not to worry... it was easy to get up on a chair to see the male side.....


...then on to  follow the stations of the cross...

....ending up at  the Holy Sepulchre Church.... this is on the spot where Jesus was crucified on the cross.....





....then we wandered through some more busy streets and left the Old City via the Jaffa Gate....
