Excursion «200. Walks on modern Jerusalem»

We invite you to take a walk outside the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem and explore its history. Let's remember the famous figures who have been here, learn about international communities, and hear stories about the architects who shaped the modern look of Jerusalem.

Our tour will take us through the so-called Jerusalem Triangle, a small section of the city where we will see works of architecture representing Russian, German, French, English, and Italian styles from different eras.

We will begin our walk in the first quarter built outside the walls of Jerusalem:

• Mishkenot Sha'ananim in Yemin Moshe.
• Beit Shmuel Complex, constructed by representatives of Reform Judaism.
• Mamluk Cemetery.
• Terra Sancta, one of the buildings designed by architect Antonio Barluzzi.
• Central Synagogue.
• Rothchild Catholic Monastery.
• Independence Park.
• The building of the first parliament.

An exciting narrative awaits you at "Talitakumi," a school built by the Order of Deaconess Sisters.

Next, we will reach Jerusalem's main artery, Jaffa Street, which is now a symbol of the modern city.

We'll visit the Ethiopian Quarter and the Russian Compound, where you will learn about the contributions of these communities to Jerusalem's history.

We'll then explore Mamilla, the oldest neighborhood of Jerusalem, reconstructed by architect Moshe Safdie, and now a gem of the modern city.

Our tour will end at Emmaus, home to the Church of the Resurrection in the Benedictine Monastery. This church, possibly one of the most beautiful structures from the Crusader period in Israel, was built over Byzantine-era springs, considered the meeting place of the resurrected Jesus and his apostles.

This excursion promises to be a captivating journey through the history and architecture of Jerusalem while introducing you to the various international communities that have left their mark on this unique city.
