Mount of Olives – The Real Jerusalem Streets

Sunset on the Mount of Olives – Shabbat Shalom

It has been quite a while since posting a new Shabbat Shalom greeting.

Inspired by this incredible view while walking to the Old City of Jerusalem, Israel,

I had to stop and take a photo of the Mount of Olives, the ancient Jewish cemetery,

and the reflection of the sun against the stones, turning them to gold.

On today, Indigenous Peoples Day, how appropriate to remember the thousands of years and thousands of Jews buried on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem of Gold.

Shabbat Shalom Klezmer Style

A cool evening in the Old City,

with Klezmer music playing,

one dancer,

two dancers,

up on top

of the walls of the Tower of David,

as the sun sets

looking towards Har HaZeitim, the Mount of Olives.

Shabbat Shalom from Jerusalem, Israel.
