After tours finished, we walked into the Old City through Lion's Gate to St. Anne's church. This is the traditional site where Mary's mother was born. It is the site of the pool of Bethesda, where Jesus healed an invalid who was waiting for the water to agitate so he could be healed.
Excavations of Bethesda pool behind Linda. This served as a reservoir for water that was needed on the temple mount for washing ceremonies.
St. Anne's church, one of the first stops on Via dolorosa. Great acoustics in this church!
