Bethlehem
On the way, you can see an example of how many beautiful flowers adorn this city. The old cathedral for the Birth of Jesus and the new. You can see the fourteen pointed star where people have come for centuries as the birthplace of Jesus. If you look closely at the Jerusalem Cross that was carved into one of the pillars centuries ago, you can see the Jerusalem Cross with the smaller crosses formed by the depictions of Olive Trees. I thought that was beautiful. The ornate chandeliers were gifts from Nicholas and Alexandra a year before they were murdered. A wedding was taking place at the church as we were leaving. I thought the ring bearers were adorable.
