The Holy Sepulcher is the location of many divine events, including the crucifixion of Christ. The majority of the holy "hot spots" are located within the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. Just inside the door is a marble slab blocking the Stone of Unction, and the tomb of Jesus is located in the center of the church. It is the Holy Land's "one-stop shop" for holy sites.
