Mt of Temptation - Jericho

Jericho is the oldest city in the world.  It dates back 10,000 years.  This is where the devil brought Jesus twice to tempt him.  At the very top is the shrine.  Halfway up the mountain is some sort of restaurant which we did not go to.

We had lunch here instead

On the same mountain there is a monastery which is on the right side of the picture.  To the left you can see caves.  This is where the hermits live.
