tvdm's new Jerusalem Page

by tvdm - last update: Aug 17, 2002

For millions of people, Jerusalem is the religious centre of the world. You need to walk around the old city and see the people from many different beliefs to really appreciate this point of view. I came to Jerusalem and expected an old city full with religious fanatics. True, they're out there, but then I'd forget all the modern buildings, the beautiful sights, the awesome museums and the good food.

The picture was taken from a park in the south of Jerusalem, overlooking the Old Town. A bit left from the middle you can see the Dome of the Rock (quite small here, I know).

 Interesting to see Jerusalem from the eyes of an outsider! The gate in your photo is the Jaffa Gate (next to David's Citadel).

 SPOT ON regarding how to arrive at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. I took your tip, suggested it to my lot and we did what you said. A nice build up. November though, freezing cold. Thanks, Ian (and it is tacky, so what? styles come and go.)
