Terminal 15 Israel

Hello again my travelers, this is your flight attendant Fatima. As our journey comes to a close we visit Jerusalem in Israel.

 

 

 

Jerusalem is where the three main religions began so there’s many religious sites. The Dome of Rock is sacred to both Christians and Muslims. Construction for the temple started during the Byzantine era, and was modeled after Byzantine churches. The  structure is octagonal in shape, 20 m in diameter, and holds 24 columns. It was raided  by crusaders in 1099 and given to a group called the Augustinians. The Dome of Rock  became a model for rounded churches across the world.

 

 

 

Israeli flag- blue dye was used a lot by Isrealites, it was synonymous with a prayer shawl. People

were supposed to keep a tassel of this shawl at all times.  The blue dye was made from a species of

shellfish. It started becoming rare so people started keeping a white tassel.  The six point star

represents unity among the jews. I think there flag shows how holy Jews are. They are known as

god's chosen people, and have a coven with him.
