In the Middle of Jerusalem is the Swedish Monastery!

Jerusalem is huddled around the Swedish Monastery.   In this rare picture, you can see the flag waving!
It sits in the "Green Lung" in the middle of the city, and Katamon, is named for it.  "Kata" mean near to and "mon" is short for Monastery.  I have never been inside but that might change in the near future.
