The land of Israel is thronged with pilgrims, tourists and visitors from all over the world. These people belong to the three main, monotheistic religions of the world ? Judaism, Islam and Christianity. The main factor that causes this is the city of Jerusalem. It is considered to be a holy place by the Jews, the Muslims and the Christians. As a result, the ?Holy City of Jerusalem? remains crowded all throughout the year.

Conducted tours in Jerusalem

If you are thinking of visiting Jerusalem, it is better that you should know a little history about the place. The holy city of Jerusalem was the venue and the cause of the medieval crusades. In an attempt to keep the city under their control, the Christians and the Muslims fought many battles in the land of Jerusalem.

The city of Jerusalem is divided into two halves- the old city and the new city. In modern times, the old city is divided into four quarters- the Jewish quarter, the Muslim quarter, the Christian quarter and the Armenian quarter. It is this uniqueness of the old city that forms the basis of the various Jerusalem tours. Each quarter has its own historical and religious places that are considered holy and sacred in the respective communities.

The most popular among these places are the Dome of the Rock, the Al Aqsa mosque, the Wailing Wall, the church of the Holy Sepulcher, the Zedekiah?s Cave etc. An interesting factor about the old city is that it the entire city is surrounded by a wall. The city can be accessed through gates like the Damascus gate, the Herod?s gate and the Lion?s gate. Leaving aside the struggles in the past and in the present, it seems quite amazing how the three oldest, monotheistic religions have co-existed with each other.

Another part of the Jerusalem tours is concerned with the Dead Sea tours. The Dead Sea is unique because no one can drown at the Dead Sea. The sea contains high amount of salt and therefore is popular among tourists who are health conscious. The white sandy beaches offer excellent relaxation spots for the tourists.
