Dominus Flevit - Where Jesus wept over Jerusalem

On our way up the hill to the Franciscan Abbey called Dominus Flevit.  Look at the incredible view of Jerusalem!  Amazing place.  


About even with the French gardens but on the other side of the mountain is a Franciscan Abbey where they think Jesus might have wept over Jerusalem.  It is an excellent view.  On the right is the Golden Gates, with a huge Muslim cemetery in front, to keep him out.
An incredible view with the Russian Orthodox church in the foreground and the walls looking a little more north.
