Holy Places
أماكن مقدسة
This Holy Places stamp set was issued by the Government of Jordan on March 5, 1963, featuring eight multicolored 50 Fils stamps depicting significant Christian and Islamic religious sites in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Gethsemane, and Hebron. The set showcases Jordan's role as custodian of these sacred locations during the period when the West Bank was under Jordanian administration (1950-1967). Each stamp presents its subject within a distinctive rounded-square frame against colored backgrounds, highlighting architectural details of revered holy sites. The Christian sites include the Church of the Holy Virgin's Tomb, the Basilica of the Agony in Gethsemane, the Holy Sepulchre, and the Nativity Church in Bethlehem. Islamic sites featured are the Haram of Ibrahim in Hebron, the iconic Dome of the Rock, and the Omar bin Al-Khattab Mosque in Jerusalem. This philatelic tribute reflects Jordan's interfaith heritage and its historical responsibility for protecting and maintaining access to these sacred places for pilgrims of different faiths. The set includes 20 additional variant and imperforate records, demonstrating the philatelic significance of this commemorative issue celebrating the Holy Land's religious landmarks.
