Photos of Via Dolorosa for this Easter

Via Dolorosa means 'painful way' or 'way of suffering' in Latin. There are 14 locations beginning at the place where Jesus was sentenced to death by Pilate to the location of His sepulcher on this road, a distance of about 800 meters.
Let us remember the sufferings and death of Jesus, and the love of God who gave His only begotten Son for us through the photos along Via Dolorosa.
