We were walking around near the City of David today, and we decided to stop in to see how much the price of admission was. Thanks to a very friendly guard, we actually ended up getting in for free and took a few hours to explore the area.
Heading down into the abyss |
I think Charis' face says it all right here -- she was pretty confused throughout the journey, but she didn't make a sound and just looked around the whole time. She is probably one of the younger patrons to journey through the tunnel.
I just loved how real and raw the experience was -- they could easily have drained out all the water, added lights and handrails, and made it into a relaxing, "touristy" experience, but they didn't. You just trudge through knee-deep water in total darkness for 45 minutes and really experience what it felt like thousands of years ago. Pretty amazing.
She's picked up this new habit lately... |
