Israel – A Three-Day Journey in Jerusalem

Nazareth ⛪️ Basilica of the Annunciation This is where the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, telling her she would conceive and give birth to the Savior. The church displays Madonna and Child artworks donated by countries around the world in honor of Mary. Archaeological findings reveal that a Jewish village existed here during Jesus’ time. A distinctive feature of Jewish homes is the mikveh (ritual bath), as Jews require natural water for purification. Sea of Galilee 🕌 Capernaum – The Town of Jesus Jesus and Peter (his first disciple) lived here for three years. Jesus performed many miracles and healed many people in this town. It is also the site of Peter’s home. Jordan River 🏞️ This is where Jesus was baptized. Many people come here specifically to be baptized. Day 2 – Jerusalem Old City The Old City is divided into four quarters: Christian, Armenian Christian, Jewish, and Muslim — the so-called “Holy City of Three Religions.” ⛪️ Western Wall ⛪️ Via Dolorosa (Way of the Cross) – 14 stations marking the path Jesus walked carrying the cross. ⛪️ Church of the Holy Sepulchre (final stations of the Via Dolorosa) A large stone lies in the center of the church. After Jesus died on the cross, his body was placed on this stone. Countless people come to touch it and pray. ⛪️ The Holiest Site in Christianity This is believed to be Jesus’ tomb. He was buried here and resurrected three days later, with angels appearing to announce the miracle. Before entering the tomb, there is a stone commemorating where the angel once sat. Bethlehem Located in Palestinian territory and now predominantly Muslim. ⛪️ Church of the Nativity This is the birthplace of Jesus and the site of the manger. According to the Bible, when Jesus was born, three wise men from the East — dressed in Persian clothing — came to visit. Because of this, when Persians later sought to destroy the church, they spared it. Day 3 – Mount of Olives At dawn, Jerusalem was bathed in soft light. It happened to be raining, and the Old City looked especially atmospheric in the mist. 🪦 Jewish Cemetery Jews believe this is the closest place to heaven. After death, they will be resurrected here and return to the Lord. For that reason, many wish to be buried here, awaiting the coming of Jehovah. A burial plot here costs as much as two apartments in Tel Aviv. Next to the cemetery is a small chapel believed to be the site of Jesus’ ascension. ⛪️ Church of All Nations This is where Jesus prayed in agony over the fate of Jerusalem and was betrayed by one of his disciples. He was then arrested by the Romans, flogged, and led to the city walls, where he carried the cross along the Via Dolorosa. #Jerusalem #Israel #IsraelTravel #ChurchOfAllNations
