3 days in Jerusalem Itinerary

Few places in the world boast such a long history and such a rich multiethnic culture as Jerusalem, a city sacred to Jews, Muslims, and Christians.

Get a sense of the local culture at Yad Vashem - The World Holocaust Remembrance Center and Israel Museum. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Western Wall and Old City of Jerusalem. Step out of Jerusalem to go to Masada and see Masada National Park, which is approximately 1h 20 min away. Next up on the itinerary: steep yourself in history at Mount of Olives, explore the ancient world of Temple Mount, examine the collection at Herzl Museum, and get engrossed in the history at Tower of David Museum.
