15 year old Max's first trip to Israel. We rented a car and spent 2 weeks touring.
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, where Jesus was crucified and buried (briefly). The "modern" church starts from the Byzantine era, and was one of the oddest structures I have ever seen- like a committee put it together over 1500 years. Here, on the roof, one can see remnants of Byzantine wall column supports which means that this "roof" was at some point indoors. The huts belong to the Ethiopian church (see next slide)
