Jerusalem - Part 1

Visited Jerusalem on Sunday.

It did not disappoint.  There is no place on Earth like it. No place that is so important to the 3 major monotheistic religions.

We visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Western Wall.  More on those sites later.

We did not go to the Temple Mount or the Dome of the Rock.  Even though the Dome of the Rock is in Jerusalem and Jerusalem is controversially in Israel, the Dome of the Rock is administered by Jordan. Non-Muslims are given very limited access to the Temple Mount.

Here is a picture of the top of the dome taken from below the Temple Mount and in front of the Western Wall
