Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Look at the significant city walls of Jerusalem, the Tower of David and enter the Old City through its main gate.
How old are these walls? Is the Tower of David really David's? And why is the most famous tomb in the world inside the city walls?

Walk through the narrow streets of the Old City, its four historical quarters: Armenian, Jewish, Muslim and Christian, explore the colorful markets, take a break for lunch, fresh juice and souvenirs.

Visit the most sacred place for every Christian in the world, the church is built over the places of Jesus crucifixion and resurrection.
Step on the Golgotha, see the Chapel of Nailing and the chapel of the Crucifixion, touch the top of Calvary.
See the Stone of Unction where the Jesus dead body was cleaned and anointed with oil. Visit Rotunda with the Aedicule of the Holy Sepulchre and descend beneath the church to the Chapel of St. Helena to see the place of recovering of the True Cross.
And also.
How can six different Christian denominations manage the church together? And what would happen if to move the wooden ladder?

The main street of Roman and Byzantine Jerusalem will show you all the gems it hides. See the remains of city walls of the First and Second Temple's periods and walk along the 1500 years old street.
