Tour the birthplace of Jerusalem
When have you had the chance to see an ancient city – from really close up?
The City of David National Park offers exactly those tours, to the shafts and tunnels that were part of the city of Jerusalem thousands of years ago. During the tour, you will enjoy a real historical wonder: a lantern-lit walk in the heart of the earth, to the waters of the Siloam Tunnel, the pulsating spring of ancient Jerusalem, which is also a bonus on hot days – refreshing yourself in the water in the middle of Jerusalem!
A must-see attraction for anyone visiting Jerusalem! Waiting to see you!
