Synopsis
The holy city to three religions, Jerusalem has been a place of pilgrimage for thousands of years. It has been razed and rebuilt repeatedly, each time by a different culture with different ideas about what a city should be. As a result, the city of Jerusalem is a glorious - and gloriously confusing - mosaic of religious shrines, historic sites, tourism facilities, and cultural monuments. This handbook and guide provide the background information needed - from history and geography to where to eat and shop - to understand this 3,000-year-old city and to make the most of a visit to it. The guide provides an in depth introduction for travelers: geography, history, touring routes, historic sites, pilgrimage sites, museums, cultural attractions, shopping, dining, accommodations, the Old City, the German Colony, the Russian Compound, Rehavia, Yemin Moshe, Nahlaot, Mea Shearim, East Jerusalem, Ein Karem, the Mount of Olives, the National Center, Western Neighborhoods.
