People have been writing about Jerusalem for the better part of its 3,000-year history, but your first glimpse inside the ancient walled city is guaranteed to leave you speechless. Jerusalem is a spiritual center, holy to the three great faiths of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

One of the most fascinating places you'll ever visit, within a short walk of each other you can find Christians quietly praying in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jews worshipping by the Western Wall and Muslims prostrate before Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Jerusalem's architecture remains in remarkable shape - you could spend days (or weeks) getting lost in its labyrinth of alleys and bustling bazaars, the Old City, biblical sites and patchwork of secular and religious neighborhoods.
