But the city also has a more secret and mysterious side. Everywhere in the city, the stones reveal another face of Jerusalem, where legends, bloody battles, plots and betrayals intertwine. As in the garden of Gethsemane, the place of treachery where Judas is said to have delivered Jesus, the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher which sees each year a mysterious flame spring forth, what Christians call the miracle of the sacred fire. What mysteries surround these emblematic places? But what is the part of legend, of history?
