Steep stairs lead to a 19th-century facade topped by twin bell . One of the columns is darker than the rest; it is believed to represent Judas.
The church has 110 icons, including a series describing the life and torture of St George and the life of St John the Baptist, and a very sacred painting of Virgin Mary known as the Coptic 'Mona Lisa'. In the baptistery, off to the right, a panel has been cut out of the floor to reveal the Water Gate below. Still in use, the church is equally crowded with tourists and parishioners who come to pray over a collection of saints’ relics and an icon of Mary.
Synagogue Ben Ezra

The Geniza in the Ben Ezra Synagogue produced some very important documents relating to the historicity of the Bible and Jewry.
