THE ARMANIAN QUARTER OF JERUSALEM


We were explorers today, divided into groups to explore different quarters of the city of Jerusalem:
Jewish, Christian, Armanian and Moslem.
Our group were assigned the Armanian section. It is very small part of the city, only about 500 people now, they have two churches, a seminary, a school and many shops. It was a challange to work and search from a very inadequate map but we persevered.
We did find a great restaurant for lunch as well.
