5 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 in touch with nature at St. George's Monastery and Zin River. Israel Museum and Old City of Jerusalem will appeal to history buffs. Explore Jerusalem's surroundings by going to Sea-gal advanced aguaculture (in Idan), Weizmann House (in Rehovot) and Hazeva (Vidor Center - A window to Arava agriculture & Biblical Tamar Park). There's much more to do: take an in-depth tour of Yad Vashem - The World Holocaust Remembrance Center, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Bethesda, admire the landmark architecture of Eglise du Saint-Sepulcre, and steep yourself in history at Hezekiah's Tunnel - Siloam Tunnel.
