Jerusalem’s Old City Walls: An Audio Tour Through Time and Faith

Despre activitate

The past and present collide at every turn in Jerusalem. On this self-guided audio tour along the ancient ramparts (old city walls), you’ll experience breathtaking views over both the Old City and modern Jerusalem, while literally straddling the boundary between them. As you traverse these Ottoman walls, built by Suleiman the Magnificent in the 1500s, you’ll find out how these fortifications have seen three millennia of history. I’ll also tell you how they continue to unite and divide this extraordinary city. The tour starts at Jaffa Gate, from where you’ll walk atop the massive stone walls of the David Citadel. You’ll marvel at the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque from an exclusive vantage point while learning about Temple Mount’s significance to three major faiths. The tour ends back at Jaffa Gate, where you’ll hear about the forgotten Ottoman clock tower that once stood proudly over the entrance.
