The City of David National Park invites you to travel back in time 2,000 years, to the hidden world under the giant stones of the Western Wall.

Come and step under the central street of ancient Jerusalem, to the period of the return to Zion, when Jerusalem in the Second Temple Period became the most beautiful city of the East.

In this guided tour, we will progress in the depths of an underground tunnel through the Second Temple Period, to the findings that provide a glimpse into the daily lives of Jerusalem residents, up until the tragic end of the last of the rebels who hid in this place, and left behind cooking implements, a Roman sword and other finds, moments before the city’s destruction. The route ends at an exit from the foundations of the Western Wall, next to the 2,000-year-old stones.
