Up the street is the exit to the Jaffa Gate. Down the road is the entrance to the Temple Mount. In the days of the greatness of Jerusalem, this place was a bridge that connected the upper city on Mount Zion and the Temple Mount. We are in the Muslim quarter of the town. And right in front of us is a beautiful piece of Mamluk architecture - it is an ornament of a niche in the shape of stalactites. By and large, getting to know Jerusalem's most important sites is coming to an end. We traversed a short but treasured path, and Jerusalem only opened up its secrets to us a little. There are more routes around, and they will be able to show you more. In the meantime, let's go to the Jaffa Gate.
The trip takes us from the Jaffa Gate through the Christian Quarter to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. After that, we will visit Golgotha, the stone of anointing, burial, and resurrection, St. Helena Chapel - the site where the Holy cross was found. Further, the route passes through Muristan to the Jewish Quarter, Kardo Street, excavations of the walls of Jerusalem from the time of Jesus, the mosaic of Madaba, the Hurva Synagogue, the Menorah, the panorama of the Olive and Temple Mountains, the Wailing Wall. Finally, we return to the Jaffa Gate through the Muslim Quarter, the monuments of the Mamluk architecture, and the street of David.
