Beautiful! Silent and numinous.
Finally, I photo of a place I’ve visited. No, it did not make me spiritual or religiousl. But it’s a great view.
At first impression – where do you think this portal leads? To me there is a certain medieval magic and mystery to the architecture. It is actually a sacred entrance inside Jerusalem’s “Church of the Holy Sepulchre” to an upstairs alcove where Jesus was supposedly crucified. After ducking thru this portal, visitors can line up to reach down through an opening to touch the very stone where Roman Emperor Constantine’s mother declared that Jesus’ cross had been placed when he was crucified.
