View from the Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem. The Dome of the Spirits or Tablets (left) was built over a location once thought to have been a resting place of the Ark of the Covenant. Through the Mawazin (arches) is the Dome of al-Khidr and, in the distance, the bell tower of the Church of the Redeemer. The columns of the Dome of the Spirits are not perfectly vertical.
