Jerusalem Lucky 7 - Israel - Lucky 7 on Waymarking.com

Jerusalem is one of the oldest cities in the world and is considered to be a holy city for the three major Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

The Old City of Jerusalem is one of the most popular UNESCO sites in the world. It is the primary attraction since it is home to some of the most important historical and religious monuments in the world. The Old City measures about 0.9 square kilometers in size. It is a walled area that is located within the modern city of Jerusalem. This area is what made up the city of Jerusalem prior to 1860.

The Old City, as this walled area of Jerusalem is called, features many sites of religious importance. During the earlier times, it was also divided into four uneven quarters: Christian Quarter, Muslim Quarter, Jewish Quarter and Armenian Quarter. The monumental walls that surrounded it were constructed sometime in early to mid-16th century.

When it was built, the walls served to fend off its intruders. Today, it is one of the main attractions among tourists who visit The Old City of Jerusalem.
