The bullet ridden (scars left from the Israeli-Arab wars) Zion Gate of Jerusalem. The gate you see today is built by Suleiman the Magnificent (1540 AD).




4P: The hebrew verses above the mezuzah (doorpost) are one of the most famous Jewish prayers: translated as "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God; the Lord is one". You can also see two other famous symbols of Judaism scribbled on the wall, viz. 'the Star of David' and the Menorah (candlestick).
