Books seen through the bars of an open window in an abandoned building. Will someone collect them?

Jerusalem is 31° north of the Equator, which puts it more or less level with New Orleans and Shanghai.

It's about 30 miles (50 kilometres) east of the Mediterranean as the crow flies.

It's 2,500 feet (750 metres) above sea level, which means it gets colder in winter than a lot of people expect.
