| Brief Description:
As the holy city for Judaism, Christianity and Islam, Jerusalem has
always had a high symbolic value. Among the 220 historic monuments,
is the stunning Dome of the Rock, built in the 7th century and decorated
with beautiful geometric and floral motifs. It is recognized by all
three religions as the site of Abraham's sacrifice. The Wailing Wall
delimits the quarters of the different religious communities whilst
the Resurrection Rotonda protects Christ's tomb
