Discover Jerusalem by Hire Car

In no other city in Israel is religion as present as in Jerusalem. For the most part, the vacationer visits the most significant sites of all three of the world’s religions that reside there.

He prays at the Western Wall of the Temple and visits a synagogue or two. In addition, he climbs the Temple Mount to visit the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock located there.

The main Christian pilgrimage sites in Jerusalem are the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Mount of Olives.

Recreational Activities in Jerusalem

Jerusalem is not only interesting to visit from a religious point of view, the shopping opportunities are also very good.

In Arab-dominated East Jerusalem, tourists feel as if they are in an oriental bazaar, while in the shops of Jewish-dominated West Jerusalem, the offer is similar to what they know from European cities; complemented by Jewish art and cultural items.

It is worthwhile to make excursions into the surrounding area during a visit to Jerusalem. Every visitor from Germany is advised to visit the Holocoust memorial Yad Vashem.
In addition, a trip to the Dead Sea is recommended.

Sights in Jerusalem

A must-see is a viewing of the Menorah, which is placed in front of Israel’s parliament, the Knesset. On its seven arms are depictions of the history of the country of Israel. Museum-goers are advised to visit the Israel Museum.

One of the most famous parts of Jerusalem is the Orthodox neighborhood of Mea Shearim. The residents there rightly resist being visited as a tourist attraction. However, it is possible to plan a route through the city so that it passes through this neighborhood.

While there, the strict Orthodox dress codes must be observed at all costs; that is, women are tolerated there only in skirts or dresses, and all people must have their knees and elbows covered.
