Everyone who enters is provided with...

I love the fact tht the tomb is empty. There are no bones or grave clothes in it. And because of that there is HOPE I dislike that we take God for granted
It is a must to at least visit all the "holy" sites just to get a feel for history. I was set back on how all the "holy" sites wee covered over with giant "churches."
We arrived here after going through the Via Dolorosa. The gardens are beautiful. We walked into this tomb where they may have laid Jesus, and saw how they were laid to rest in those days.

I am not sure of the provinance of this as the actual tomb of Jesus, I think it more likely it is in the Holy Sepulchre, but it gives you an idea of the type of tomb that was used. Very helpful guide, lovely surroundings a real oasis in a busy city
We were fortunate to catch it on an off time - no busloads of tourists to contend with & thus very peaceful. The volunteer guides are just wonderful & we took advantage of the very nice shop there. Do your homework & pick an off time to visit.
