Dominus Flevit Church

While all visitors enjoy the bird’s eye view overlooking Jerusalem’s Old City, the panoramic vista is particularly special to Christians. They consider it the same scene that Jesus once beheld as he shed tears and contemplated the city’s future ruin.
As you enter the church, walk to the left of the entrance. There, you’ll find an excavated mosaic floor that dates back to the site’s Byzantine era, when the church was dedicated to Saint Anna the Prophetess, mentioned briefly in the Gospel of Luke. It features a fetching fruit and flower motif.
There is no admission ticket required to access the church. Visitors are welcomed daily, free of charge.
One of the church’s most famous views is a window beyond the altar that perfectly frames the Temple Mount, including the religious icons of the Dome of the Rock and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. This is a popular spot for meditators and photographers alike.
