Gesthsemani is located at the foot of Mount Olives in modern Jerusalem. It was in this most holy place that Jesus prayed the night after the last supper. And, it was from this his location he was betrayed by Judas and arrested. I found it a most solemn place, moreso than the many other Jerusalem landmards. The priest in the picture just amazed me with his concentration... lots of people (many loud) milling around and he never looked up from his prayers. Sure wish I knew his secret, well I do but I'm just not there.
