Hiking

This place does not belong to Via Dolorosa, the Passion of Christ. However, since this route is usually followed by the Lion Gate, it is right in front of the first of 12 stations.

In the courtyard of St. Anne's Basilica you will find the historical Bethes files in whose columned halls there is also a biblical story of a paralytic being healed by Jesus.
