_We***86The Old city is actually very compact with narrow alleys and contains small communities of different faiths. It's amazing to understand the building process and how there's entire layers of the previous settlements. An incredible experience and insight into the long history.

法国ribThis is the place where Jesus died and was raised. It is the holy place of Christianity. An interesting tradition, the twelfth century rulers of the time, stipulated that the keys to the church of the Holy Tomb were kept by a Muslim family, so that you would not all argue. Now every night, a Muslim climbs a ladder to lock the door.

嘎兰If you want to learn more about the past and present of Israel, it is recommended to go to the Israel Museum first, set aside half a day or even a day, and then visit the ancient city, it can be said that it is a clear memory. I happened to visit the museum with a class of military academy students, and there was a little surging in my heart~
The archaeological museum, Jewish art life museum, contemporary art, including outdoor art garden, 1/50 models of Jerusalem from the Second Temple period are exquisite and rich in collections. The most important town hall area is the Dead Sea Scrolls area, where the original, oldest and most complete Bible manuscripts are preserved.Write Reviews, Win Prizes
