Description
   Beautiful large multi-colored wall poster of the holy sites of Jerusalem. The pictorial map is surrounded on all four sides by verses. Behind the Western Wall and the Temple grounds are the rolling hills of Jerusalem. Within the depiction sites are numbered and, below the representation of the holy sites are three paragraphs. Two explain the numbers, one in Hebrew the other in English. There are fourteen numbered sites, among them the Mount of Olives, the tomb of the prophet Zechariah, Beth Hchofshith and graves of the priests sons of Ezekiel, graves of the prophets Haggai, Zechriah, and Malachai. Numbers eleven, twelve, and thirteen are, respectively, of the Western Wall (here referred to as the Wailing Place), sight of the Holy Temple and most Holy Place, and houses around the Wailing Place. The middle paragraph is a Hebrew textual description of the poster.
