The iconic city of Jerusalem, Israel, is full of interesting things to do. The Western Wall (also known as the Wailing Wall or the Buraq Wall) is located in the Old City and dates back to the first century. Millions of people pray and write their wishes on paper, which they place in the cracks in the stone wall. The Prayer Plaza section is open to all. Please dress modestly to show respect. Another attraction in the Old City is Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock, a holy site for Jews and Muslims. The golden-topped building is a beautiful sight. Visiting hours are not fixed, however, to enter, your shoulders and legs need covering, and you will have to take your shoes off. See the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, which is said to stand above the tomb of Jesus Christ. This is one of the Christians' sacred places. It's open daily to all with free admission, but dress modestly and expect long queues. Discover West Jerusalem's Jaffa Road and Ben-Yehuda Street for lively vibes with different shops, restaurants, and bars. East Jerusalem's vibrant markets in Damascus and Herod's Gates are fun to explore.
