Our second day in Jerusalem begins with a visit to the famous Western Wall and Tunnel excavation site. We will visit Ecce Homo (Behold the Man), site of the Antonia Fortress. We’ll pass many of the traditional 14 Stations of the Cross on the Via Dolorosa and also see part of the old colorful oriental market. We will continue our walk and visit the restored Jewish Quarter and the Roman Cardo, the main street of Jerusalem in Roman times. Then we travel a short distance to the Mount of Olives for a breathtaking view of the city of Jerusalem. While we are here, our guide will point out all of the important sites of Jerusalem. We will proceed to Mount Zion to visit the Upper Room, traditional site of the Last Supper and the fire of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost. At the end of the day we will be visiting the Southern Wall excavation site. Here we will walk on the very stones where Jesus trod to Herod’s “second temple” and see the place where our Savior taught the Scriptures. (B/L/D)
