    Jerusalem

    by StefanE Updated Jul 22, 2005 20 reviews
    Jerusalem

    Fondest memory: This where the first surprise I had expected to see a city in the middle of a empty sand desert with a great wall around it. Instead I it was a big modern city up in the mountains and the wall around the old city where mostly hidden behind buildings or destroyed long ago. When I entered Jerusalem at noon it was sunny and the temperature where a comfortable 22C. In the evening at about 8 when I left it was about –3C and snowing with thin layer of snow on the streets. Talk about change in weather!

    Mea Shearim

    by Carmela71 Updated Mar 22, 2004 2995 reviews

    3.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Favorite thing: The ultra-Orthodox neighbourhood, where fashion stopped about 150 years ago.

    They have preserved the life and uses as their ancestors, who came from Eastern Europe.

    Please remember to dress modestly; that means that women should not show her legs (long skirts), well actually women should not show anything, if you want to walk around, show as less as possible.

    If you go on Shabbats (Saturdays), do not drive through, take photos or listen to a walkman or you may be in trouble.

    I loved the little boys with the payot (sidecurls)

    View of the wall from Yemin Moshe

    2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Favorite thing: While visiting this beautiful area, we took this picture of the walls that go around Jerusalem.

    This neighbour and its gardens are a great stop after all the walking over the old city, and have parking places.

    just kiddin around with a few jokes here and there

    by KianaInupiaq Updated Feb 2, 2004 181 reviews

    Favorite thing: A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten
    Commandments with her five and six year olds. After
    explaining the commandment to "honor thy father and
    thy mother," she asked "Is there a commandment that
    teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?"
    Without missing a beat one little boy answered,
    "Thou shall not kill."

    Fondest memory: this is at the Christian embassy in Jerusalem, Let my people go

    Jerusalem, the old city - outside the walls

    by Martin_S. Written Oct 26, 2003 2628 reviews

    2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Outside old Jerusalem walls, Israel

    Favorite thing: Here you can see along one of the outer walls of the old city. Below it you have the new and modern road leading into "new" Jerusalem. You can get an idea of the size of the walls by the cars and people below.
