Day 02:Old City of Jerusalem.
Today we explore the Old City of Jerusalem by Foot: Your guide will pick you up at your hotel, and walk with you to Mishkenot Sha'ananim, the first neighborhood outside the walls of the Old City. Here we will see the glorious 19th Century Chariot that took the founder of this neighborhood, Sir Moses Montifiore, on his journeys in the Holy Land. We will also see the Windmill Montifiore built, that became one of the city's characteristics. We walk by the "Sultan's Pool" and enter the Old City through the fortified Jaffa Gate. A short walk through Jerusalem's colorful Bazaar, brings us to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the place where Jesus was crucified and buried. We continue through the "Suq" (Bazaar) and along some of the stations of the "Via Dolorosa" (Jesus' Way of Suffering) to the Muslim Quarter, and from there to the "Wailing Wall", the last remnants of the Jewish Temple. This holy place attracts different types of Jews from all over the world, who come here to pray and stick small notes with their wishes between the stones of the wall. We will then walk through the rebuilt Jewish Quarter to Mt. Zion, where we will visit King David's Tomb, holy to 3 religions, and the Room of the Last Supper. At the end of the day we will return to our hotel along the walls of the Old City.
In case your hotel is located to the East of the Old City, you will visit instead of Mishkenot Sha'ananim the Garden Tomb – a quit garden just outside the Old City, where the story of the Crucifixion comes alive, enter the Old City through the Damascus Gate, and then proceed as described above.
