Christians celebrate Easter where Jesus resurrected in Jerusalem

Christians marked Jesus’s resurrection on Easter Sunday at the Jerusalem site where they believe the miracle occurred, with some prostrating themselves over his tomb and leaving in tears.
Visitors and worshipers filed through the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, built on the site where tradition says Jesus was crucified, buried and resurrected.
It was the first Easter since the unveiling in March of renovations to the ornate, 19th-century shrine covering Jesus’s tomb following a $3.7-million project that restored its stones to their original reddish-yellow and reinforced the heavily visited site.This year’s holiday also fell on the same date for both Western and Eastern Christians, an irregular occurrence since they follow different calendars.
