The oldest part of Jerusalem, the City of David, is an archaeological site since 1850!  It was a settlement, captured by King David around 3000 years ago.

The Damascus Gate, newly built in the 16th century, presents a fabulous scene with a mix match of colourful people, ranging from vendors travelling in and out of the Old City to farmers of the surrounding villages trying to sell their produce. Well worth a visit. 

It is incredibly to walk around the the oldest section of Jerusalem, the Kidron Valley, and see achaeological remnants that date back more than 4000 years. The site of the legendary 'City of David', which was actually a city long before David slung any stones. There are also a number of graves and tombs in the area, particularly in the Valley of Jehoshaphat.

The Western Wall, or Wailing Wall, is the the most important religious shrine for the Jewish people . It was built around 2000 years ago, to support the Temple Mount and became the most sacred spot in Jewish religious and national consciousness and tradition as it is so close to the Holy of Holies in the Temple, from which, according to numerous sources, the Divine Presence never departed.

The ultimate Jerusalem walking tour is, of course, the Via Dolorosa, the route that Jesus is believed to have taken as he carried his cross to Calvary.
