How to Spend 3 Days in Jerusalem
351 Tours and Activities
The living home of the world’s three major religions, Jerusalem is also a vibrant city for outdoor sightseeing.
The Old City is north of the City of David, and it’s here that you’ll get a shiver down the backbone as you walk through history. Old City highlights include the David Street souk for bargaining, the open-air market surrounding Damascus Gate in the Muslim Quarter.
With so much history and so many faiths, Jerusalem has more than five dozen museums and hundreds of historic sites to explore. Admire swirls of calligraphy at the institute for Islamic Art, the archaeological discoveries of the British Mandate at the Rockefeller Museum, and imagine how life was lived in the days of Jesus at the Wohl Archaeological Museum.
Many visitors to Israel make the pilgrimage to Bethlehem to visit the birthplace of Jesus, only 10km (6 miles) south of Jerusalem. The Church of the Nativity is the focus, built on Manger Square over the grotto where Jesus was born.
