OK, forgive my absolute lack of religious culture: are these wax or real?
I really like the warm colours.
@ ciel - They're real and are celebrating mass at the altar built over the (alleged) place where Jesus was born.
This is actually a little creepy. I thought it was Madame Tussaud's! Thanks for the explanation; it certainly has a lot of meaning for many people and is something you don't see every day. I saw one grotto, and it was in Sicily. It was more theatrical than real, so I would have been very confused if you hadn't said what it was!
Oh thanks Tapirgal. I feel a little less stupid now.
Wonderful!
Too bad Bethlehem is now legally off limits to me.
Nice photo.
Wonderful shot! Thanks for sharing :-)
