| A view of the Old City from the rooftops of the Armenian Quarter. From here you see the Dome of the Rock, a couple minorets, and the Mt. of Olives is in the distance. The towers in the distance are the Hebrew University tower (left) and Church of the Ascension tower (right). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| And olive garden on the Eastern Hill. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This is the old Roman road that went around the Second Temple platform. Jesus would have walked on these streets. Along the sides of the street is where the markets and money changers would have been. The wall to the left is part of the Temple. The large crater in the road was caused by the collapse of a huge arched stairway that fell when the Romans destroyed the Temple in 70 A.D. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Almost all streets in the Old City are like this one. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
