Featured Term (selected at random):

VIA DOLOROSA

The Sorrowful Way. The route, according to tradition, which Jesus followed walking from Pilate's court to Calbary. It is a steep, narrow street that pilgrims traverse in meditating on the incidents that culminated in the Crucifixion. The Stations of the Cross are marked on buildings along the route to dramatize the events for those who walk in these sacred processions.

I walked the Via Dolorosa last June. It's just as you say.
Our guide, Steve Ray, took us there at 5:30 in the morning and there was NO ONE but us. We had two priests with us and they led the stations of the Cross....along the Way of the Cross.
WHAT an experiece.

Sounds wonderful except for the 5:30 in the morning.
