Jerusalem Descent Through Desert to Modern City Scene
In a London Times travel piece the author recounts a long desert approach to Palestine, noting wells, Beduin camps, and a British pipe line to Gaza. He describes the Gaza-Ludd-Jerusalem rail ascent, a modern German settlement near the end, and the crowded station before entering the old city through Jaffa Gate. The inner city appears as East’s primitive bustle with spices, dirt, and dense alleys, ending with a sobering view at the Temple Wall where Jews lament the Temple’s loss, while the city remains a mix of slums and pensive interplay of faith and poverty.
