<p>The shrine, built nearly 1,000 years ago, stands atop a hotly contested complex called the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Mount">Temple Mount</a> (“Noble Sanctuary” in Arabic) that dates back to the Canaanites several thousand years agolike I said, an impressive resume!</p>
<p>The shrine, built nearly 1,000 years ago, stands atop a hotly contested complex called the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Mount">Temple Mount</a> (“Noble Sanctuary” in Arabic) that dates back to the Canaanites four thousand years agolike I said, an impressive resume!</p>
&lt;p&gt;As a secular person it&amp;rsquo;s all a bit too heavy for my taste, but there&amp;rsquo;s no doubt that the complex is stunningly beautiful. Visitation of the Temple Mount is open to the non-Muslim public from 7:30 to 11:00 AM from the access bridge at the Western Wall in the Jewish Quarter of the old city.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Another day, another exquisite, hand-painted ceiling in Amman. Just like the &lt;a href=&#34;https://picturingjordan.com/2016/09/beautiful-hand-painted-woodwork/&#34;&gt;other hand-painted wood ceiling&lt;/a&gt; I posted about a few weeks ago, the work was done by an old Syrian man. This one is actually in my flat, and I may or may not have taken this picture while laying on my back on the living room floor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Even if the number number of mosques in Amman &lt;em&gt;didn&amp;rsquo;t&lt;/em&gt; outnumber churches by a factor of ten, the Saint Thaddeus Armenian Apostolic church would still stand out. It caught my eye once a few weeks ago and then I started seeing it every time I glanced at Jabal Al-Ashrafieh. After weeks of squinting and asking myself &amp;ldquo;&lt;em&gt;Is that an Armenian church?&lt;/em&gt;&amp;rdquo; I finally went on an epic scavenger hunt and found it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There&amp;rsquo;s an old Syrian man who does this fantastic hand painting on wood panels in Amman. A few flats in our building have them installed on the ceiling, but this one takes the cake. I&amp;rsquo;m not sure if it&amp;rsquo;s typical for the region or notthe man was referencing pictures from a Russian art bookbut they are exquisite.&lt;/p&gt;
