There are far too many things for the Christian to see in
Jerusalem. I could not hope to put them all here. But I tried to get pictures of
the most important ones.
Jerusalem, and its surrounding area, of course, is where
Jesus Christ spent all of His earthly life. So, all the Bible stories about
Jesus took place somewhere over there. Following are a few of the key locations
for the Christian in Jerusalem and its surrounding areas.
