|
| This is one of the places to store water for the inhabitants to use... huge isn't it?
|
| Finally climbing out of the Cistern
|
| Southern Wall. Beyond that are cliffs.. No you can't go to that ridge. It is miles away on another mountain
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Southern Citadel - the southernmost point of the fortress
|
| Back down in the tourist complex is a very important place - a place where you could sit down and have a cool drink after the tiring and scorching walk over the site
|
| T-shirts sold in the complex, some were actually quite funny, and some showed their pride as being Israelis (see the black T-shirt next to the camel)
|
| The bus stop for my return journey, you'd better time yourself properly or risk standing there for half an hour at 40C
|

|
|
One highway (90) brings you all the way from Jerusalem to the southern tip of Israel (Eilat)
|
| On the way back the bus broke down (engine overheated), everyone had to get off and wait. Most passengers were soldiers waiting to get home
|
| While waiting, the religious Jews would take every opportunity to follow their praying ritual (sunset prayers?)
|
| Finally another bus came along to pick us up. Too late I already missed my West Wall Tunnel tour.

The good, the bad and the ugly!
