During a weekend trip to the Morro Bay area we wandered in to an antique shop in town. They had boxes of old postcards for sale that we had fun looking through and came across these two old ones from Israel! Not sure what the dates are for either of these photos.
The first one is Jerusalem, obviously an older shot and even the postcard itself seemed pretty old. Compare this to a similar shot from our recent trip (below) and you can see how much more built up the area is today.
This one in Capernaum of the synagogue there isn't as old. I didn't have a picture of this same angle, but you can see in my photo below that since the postcard was taken they've somewhat reconstructed the walls of the synagogue.
Capernaum and Jerusalem are two of my favorite places in Israel. Just kinda fun to see some old photos of those places. Makes me wonder, what more will be developed or discovered in the next 50 years?
