Hebron: Abraham Mosque

The security very tight here, we have to pass the detector gate, all metals including watch should be dismantled from our body, no camera were allowed.

In this Mosque there are tombs of Patriarchs and Matriarchs, where Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekkah and Leah and Jacob were buried.

This place has been a place of prayer for centuries both Muslims and Jews, now they are separated by wooden walls.

We celebrated the New Year or New Centuries 1 January 2000 in Jerusalem, at the New Year eve we saw fireworks blows from Bethlehem where Jesus was born.

We left Jerusalem to the border, then change to other bus to Amman, we stayed overnight in Amman before continuing our trip home.
