Tuesday, December 20th - Today I traveled to Southeast Asia to witness the religion of Buddhism. They believe in The Four Noble Truths of Buddha's teachings, They are the truth of suffering, the truth of the cause of suffering, the truth of the end of suffering, and the truth that leads to the end of suffering. Their newer temples have beautiful colors and statues. I also visited a truly sacred place known as Borobudur. It contained 72 statues of Buddha

Wednesday, December 21st - Today I visited one of the most well known places of the christian religion, Vatican city. In Italy, This is where the sistine chapel is, Michelangelo's famous painting, and St. Peters Basilica. It has many pillars and a dome on the roof. It somewhat resembles the U.S. capital building. The Vatican is a very sacred place for christians. The pope governs there and it is the burial site for past popes.

Thursday, December 22nd - Today I traveled to the sacred city of Jerusalem, Israel. I was driven to a the third holiest site in all of islam. It was named the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Inside there was seven aisles and pillars separating each one. outside there is a fountain that people use for ritual washings.

Friday, December 23rd - I stayed in jerusalem to visit the western wall. It is one of the standing most sacred place for judaism. Many people come here to pray and witness the heart of the jewish religion. The wall is the only standing relic from when the romans attacked in 70 AD. People will write down their prayers and stick them in the cracks of the wall then they will place their forehead on the wall and pray.
