Jerusalem - In The Footsteps Of Jesus

We start on Mount Olives visiting the place of the Ascension and Pater Noster, where we can see the Lord's Prayer is 123 languages. After an overview of Jerusalem from the top of Mount Olives, looking down at the Old City and the Temple Mount, we begin our descent, stopping at Dominus Flevit, where Jesus wept as he foresaw the destruction of Jerusalem and continuing to the Church of All Nations in the Garden of Gethsemane. Before ascending to the Old City and entering through the Lion's Gate, we look back at the Kidron Valley and the Jewish cemetery on Mount Olives, with the monumental burial sites at its base. In the Old City our first stop is at the pools of Bethesda in the grounds of the Church of St. Anne, mother of Mary. Underneath the Sisters of Zion convent we will see the ancient pavement with the games the Roman soldiers played engraved on the stones. Visit the Notre Dame De Sion - location of the striped pavement (Litho Strosos) where Jesus was condemned. This is where the Via Dolorosa, the Way of the Cross, begins, ending at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
