Jerusalem is one of the most interesting places in the world. I am grateful to have spent 39 days living on Via Dolorosa<\/em>, a few steps away from Golgotha. My hotel was in the\u00a0center of the old\u00a0city, in the thick of things. With the Holy\u00a0Sepulchre just around the\u00a0corner it could not possibly be more exciting.\u00a0Inspired by this unusual experience I wrote an article about the Holy City<\/a>. It was a major undertaking so please have a look at it. The article is in Polish though I hope the images from Jerusalem and Bethlehem will be interesting to everyone.<\/p>\n

In brief, the holy city of Jerusalem is an incredible blend of cultures. It is deeply fascinating with its people, the clothing they wear, their houses, food, and the mesmerising\u00a0sounds and smells of the Middle East. But expect to be surprised when you come to Jerusalem. It is shocking in a way.<\/p>\nJerusalem, Navel of the World<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
