A tour tracing the footsteps of the Armenian community, which preserves a unique historical legacy as one of the first peoples to settle in Jerusalem during the Byzantine period. We will visit the Armenian Quarter at the new Museum of Armenian History, where the astonishing bird mosaic is located. We will meet the museum director and enter the Holy Church of St. James during prayer time.
