This part of the cardo is open. Here we can be well impressed by the rise of the layers of the city's life for 15 centuries. But it would be a mistake to think that we are facing a stratification of layers of waste. Usually, major devastation or earthquake are the ones that cause a significant increase in the stratum of the city. It is easier to fill the ruins with soil and build over than to invest in demolishing and clearing rubble.
The trip takes us from the Jaffa Gate through the Christian Quarter to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. After that, we will visit Golgotha, the stone of anointing, burial, and resurrection, St. Helena Chapel - the site where the Holy cross was found. Further, the route passes through Muristan to the Jewish Quarter, Kardo Street, excavations of the walls of Jerusalem from the time of Jesus, the mosaic of Madaba, the Hurva Synagogue, the Menorah, the panorama of the Olive and Temple Mountains, the Wailing Wall. Finally, we return to the Jaffa Gate through the Muslim Quarter, the monuments of the Mamluk architecture, and the street of David.
