I highly recommend visiting the Garden of Gethsemane! To get there, we traveled by bus and then walked. It's hard in the heat, but it's not far to go. The garden simply amazed us with its majestic trees! These thousand-year-old olives are so cared for, I have never seen anything like it in my life! The trees are so magnificent that it is difficult to describe in words that it is breathtaking, trunks with a diameter of more than 2 meters, it is even impossible to hug them (if they were not fenced)! There is also the Church of All Nations, where you can see the stone on which Jesus prayed before the execution, an amazing holy place. The Temple itself is quite new, but very beautiful, amazing mosaics and frescoes everywhere. I recommend that you go in the evening, there are no more groups of tourists and you can enjoy and feel the energy of this amazing place! It was very interesting for me to touch the history of the holy place.
