The respective coat-of-arms of each donating country are incorporated into the glass of the ceiling, each in a separate, small dome, and also into the interior mosaics. The countries honored in this way are; starting from the left side, beginning with the apse: Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico; in the middle of the church are memorialized: Italy, France, Spain and the United Kingdom, and to the right: Belgium, Canada, Germany, and the United States of America. The mosaics in the apses were donated by Ireland, Hungary, and Poland. The crown around the bedrock itself was a gift of Australia. These multi-national donations give the church its present title as the Church of "All Nations".

A scenic view of the ancient stone fortifications of Jerusalem's Old City, highlighting the Tower of David on the left and a domed abbey in the background, with traffic moving along the road below.

A narrow passage flanked by high stone walls leads towards a stone archway. A scooter is parked further down the path, and greenery hangs from the wall on the left.

A paved walkway runs beside the high stone fortifications of the Old City. Large pine trees cast shadows on the left, while the ancient wall rises on the right, with modern buildings and a crane visible in the distance.

6:00 in the morning - as the morning Fog broke through and the sun started to rise it created an Amazing Photograph....Take a look for yourself... in this photo you can see the construction of the new bridge by the entrance to the city - to the left and up is the central bus station -and to the right up a bit is Binyanei Hauma. Flames in Yerushalayim - I hope not. (This photo was not manipulated in photoshop in any way)This is a real shot.
