Start this Jerusalem Old City tour with a view of the city’s skyline from the Mt. of Scopus. We can see beyond the Old City walls to the Dome of the Rock. Descending the mount we enter the beautiful Garden of Gethsemane, Church of All Nations, and see Kidron Valley where there are centuries-old monumental Jewish tombs. We pass by the Dormition Church on Mt. Zion. We visit the Room of the Last Supper and King David’s Tomb. We pass through the 500-year-old Old City walls by way of the Zion Gate and into the Armenian Quarter. At the Jewish Quarter, we see the Byzantine-era Cardo and stop at the sacred Western Wall. The tour retraces Jesus’ footsteps along the holy Via Dolorosa to the beautiful Church of the Holy Sepulchre. This ornate 4th-century church holds the site of the crucifixion, Christ’s burial tomb, and countless religious relics. Our final stop is at the colorful Old City bazaar.
