US-7637283

Here it is another example of a card that doesn't match with its ID. Even thought it was sent from USA, the card is actually from Nazareth, Israel. 

US-7637283, sent by Amanda.
The Greek Orthodox Annunciation Church, also known as St. Gabriel Church and Mary's Well Church,  is one of the most beautiful and unique ones in Israel. Following the Easter Christian tradition, this church has many wall paintings, statues and chandeliers. 
This church is the most sacred place for the Greek-Orthodox community in Nazareth, and is built where, according to an ancient tradition, was the annunciation to Virgin Mary from Archangel Gabriel as she came by to draw water from the spring. The church was established during Crusader-Era times in the 12th century, shortly after the Crusaders’ occupation, then was destroyed during the Mamluk Era times by the Mamluk Sultan Baibers in the 13th century, and re-built during the Ottoman Era times in 1750. - inhttp://www.nazarethinfo.org
