The Temple Mount tour starts at the Mount of Olives, where you can enjoy spectacular views of Jerusalem’s steeples, domes, and towers, as well as the Old City walls and Temple Mount. Pass by many beautiful churches on the Mount en route to Kidron Valley, located between the Mount of Olives and the Old City walls. In Kidron Valley, view the magnificent 1st-century tombs of Absalom, Benei Hezir, and Zechariah.

Continue to the 16th century Dung Gate where the tour enters the Old City and takes you to Temple Mount, a site held sacred by Christians, Muslims, and Jews. It was here that Solomon built the First Temple which was destroyed in 587BC. The Second Temple stood on Temple Mount from 516 BC to 70AD. The Temple held the Ark of the Covenant where the Ten Commandments were kept. Today the mount is home to the magnificent Dome of the Rock built in 687AD; the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the third holiest site in Islam and the Dome of Chains. You can see these impressive structures and learn about Temple Mount’s incredible history. On occasion, the Temple Mount is closed to visitors, if so the tour will visit the Tower of David instead of the Temple Mount.

Next, we visit the Davidson Center an archaeological site alongside Temple Mount. Here you can see excavated artifacts and architectural structures from various historical periods including the First and Second Temple Periods, Byzantine, Muslim, and Crusader eras. Among the archeological finds at the Davidson Center are walls from the First Temple Period; steps leading up to the Temple Mount; a Second Temple era street; ritual baths and more. The tour comes to an end when you are returned to your hotel.
