                          One site that tourists can visit in Jerusalem is the Tomb of the Blessed Virgin Mary . But Catholics and Eastern Orthodox Christians believe in the Assumption of Mary (that she was taken body and soul into heaven).

How does Mary have a tomb if there was no body to bury because she was taken into heaven?
