Day - 16 - Old City Exploration

Today we went to the old city to be shown the ropes.


This place is crazy. Completely crowded with people, and most of them don't really like each other.


Everything is built upon itself, so it's very hard to navigate around. 


The markets are packed with a ton of crap that no body wants, but for some reason people buy.


















We went up onto the temple mount, where the girls got hounded for showing too much skin. Apparently your a hoochie if you show your shoulders...


The Dome of the Rock is a beautiful building with its gold roof.






Both the Muslims and the Jews believe that in the Dome of the Rock sits the corner stone of the world. The very first stone God created when he created the earth.


I couldn't get inside to verify, so I'll just take their word.


We ended our day at the wailing wall.
