Via Dolorosa, Jerusalem
The 14 stations of the Via Dolorosa or Way of Sorrows, are each clearly marked in the Old City of Jerusalem. Wind your way through the open air market, along this ancient spiritual route.
Most probably developed by the Franciscans after they were granted administration of the Christian holy places in Jerusalem in 1342, the Via Dolorosa symbolizes a spiritual journey.
