Explore Jerusalem: A Mysterious Journey to the Millennium Holy City

🌿Jerusalem, an ancient yet modern city, is a holy place where Eastern and Western civilizations meet, and a city full of mystery and contemplation. Here are some travel tips for Jerusalem:

🌿**1. Old City of Jerusalem: A Mark of History**
The Old City of Jerusalem, as the holy place of three religions and the birthplace of two nations, has a high density of attractions on just one square kilometer of land. Every road and every brick here is full of stories, and walking is the best way to explore. The Old City is made up of "four quarters and one mountain" - the Jewish Quarter, the Muslim Quarter, the Christian Quarter, the Armenian Quarter, and the Temple Mount.

🌿**2. Western Wall: The Power of Faith**
The most important landmark in the Jewish Quarter is the Western Wall, also known as the Wailing Wall. There are endless streams of worshippers here every day, men and women separated, bowing to the wall, crying and praying devoutly. The Western Wall is also considered a post office to heaven, where people put notes with their wishes into the cracks of the Western Wall in the hope that their wishes will come true.
🌿**3. Israel Museum: A Treasure Trove of Culture**
Built in 1965, the Israel Museum is the national museum of Israel, with a large collection of biblical archaeology, Jewish artifacts, and ethnography from Africa, North and South America, Asia, and the Far East. The museum houses a 2,000-year-old handwritten copy of the Old Testament found at Masada, known as the Dead Sea Scrolls, which is also the museum's treasure.
🌿**4. Temple Mount: A Holy Place of Religion**
As a holy place of three religions, the struggle for ownership of the Temple Mount has been a major cause of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Be sure to bring your passport for inspection when visiting the Temple Mount. At the security checkpoint on the Temple Mount, you will be asked if you have a religious belief, and the Bible and information about the Western Wall are not allowed to be brought into the Temple Mount. Although all non-Muslims are prohibited from entering any of the buildings on the Temple Mount, the exterior of the buildings on the Temple Mount is also worth seeing. Especially the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
🌿**5. Arab Market: The Style of the Market**
After visiting the Temple Mount, you can go directly to the Arab Market through other exits. There are a wide variety of goods and restaurants here, and you can choose an Arab restaurant to taste Arab food.

🌿**6. Damascus Gate: A Witness to History**
The Damascus Gate is the busiest gate in the Old City, and many protests and clashes take place at the Damascus Gate, so security is very tight here.

🌲🌲🌲Jerusalem, a city of holiness and charm, awaits your exploration and experience. Here, every step is history, and every glance is a story.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
