St. Helena Rd., Jerusalem

It may be somewhat difficult to find the Holy Sepulchre Church when you have just arrived in the Old City of Jerusalem. Because of the dense architectural tissue you do not fully see the basilica from the outside. There are two ways leading to the piazza in front of the church. One - from Muristan through a doorway straight from the bazaar. The other - from Christian Quarter Rd. via St. Helena Rd. You can see Omar's Mosk at the end of the street (on the photo) and it looks like a dead-end but just around the corner is the entrance. Check it out on my blog.
