Israel photo diary III

Shalom, erev tov! Ma shelomkha? After staying some days in Tel Aviv, we rented a car and drove from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, where we stayed for one night. What a special and beautiful city.
We went to the Old City. It is only accessible by walking because of the many small alleys and tiny streets. A special thing about the Old City is the fact that it is divided into different quarters, so you walk in a Jewish quarter and everything is written in Hebrew, but suddenly you see Arabic written signs and you realize you got into the Muslim quarter.

In the tiny streets there is an open-air market filled with food, souvenirs, jewelry etc, fun to look around!

The next day, before heading to the Dead Sea, we climbed on top of the ramparts so we could have a view of the city. It is quite spectacular!


Next and last part: The Dead Sea!
