  • It's all about the atmosphere!!
    By JonatasS, 11/02/09
    This is neither St. Peter's in Rome, nor Notre Dame in Paris; this is all about the feeling! From the very first step in the courtyard, it hits you and hits you hard, the music, the incense, the prayers being cried out in multiple languages, the expressions on the pilgrim’s faces. The mood is very reverent, this is where Jesus was ...

  • Holy chaos
    By jfh, 02/23/09
    We arrived for the 3pm Stations of the Cross, with the thousands of faithful, tourists and faithful tourists!

    By ClaytonE, 11/06/05
    A must see for the pilgrim and visitor to Jersusalem. REmove yourself from the hustle of the city and enter into a place of holiness. Leave time for thought, contemplation and prayer.

    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/16/05
    It's hard to believe the claims of this place. It is a very old and very ornate church. I didn't find it a spiritual experience.

  • A must see for every Christian
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/11/05
    You can definitely feel the presence of God in this church, beautiful and historical, with paintings and art that is just amazing. Just seeing and touching Jesus' tombstone was enough, an experience i'll never forget. A must see for every Christian.
