The old city of Jerusalem is quite large and there's a lot to see. It would be easier if the maps were clearer and the street names more prominent, but we were able to make our way to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.This is the site of Jesus' crucifixion and burial. Nothing was marked inside, so I'm not sure where either took place. I took a few pictures, and I'll post them later.
One thing that is clearly marked is the Via Dolorosa, which was the path Jesus took following condemnation by Pilate. Each station of the cross is marked, and there is a place where visitors can pick up and carry a replica cross. Probably for the best, they aren't very heavy.
