Jerusalem

About Jerusalem

With its convergence of three world religions, Jerusalem is a city of contrasts—old and new, secular and religious, small city feel and the spirit of a metropolis. In the Old City, the melodic calls to prayer of Islam echo alongside the ringing bells of the Christian church. White stone lines the narrow, winding roads leading to Jerusalem's diverse neighborhoods. The air is filled with aromas of incense, saffron, and spiced coffee. Starting on Thursday nights, the city comes alive with the hum of crowds enjoying delicious street food and an active music scene.
