Amazing, just being here and walk through these narrow streets and see how all religions are all in one small place is an irreplaceable feeling

You should read some basic & historical notes about here in advance before your visit. This makes your every step here more excited!

Do the catacombs. You can only go all the way through (the catacombs) if you're Muslim. Otherwise it's mostly an ancient bazaar selling tourist knickknacks and a wall to wall at. Fun to walk around.

Amazing. We got a tour guide. Well worth it. We walked 5 miles for 5 hours and learned so much! Walled cities are amazing.

Some of the best food and shopping in Israel! Try some hummus at a local spot and check out a few of the shops before buying something.

A palimpsest city; layers and layers of history where three religions left their remarkable traces. Must be seen ✨

The history here is fascinating! I wish it was a little cleaner though, especially the Muslim quarter.

Everything is negotiable. If fist time here and no map, use Jaffa Gate and get one at tourist office. "Streets" may look more like flea market alleys and have stairs.

Una experiencia muy especial, recorrer las pequeñas calles y los comercios, todo se conserva de una forma casi intacta a pesar de los años, un punto imperdible en la visita a Israel.

Множество красивых улочек, церквей и храмов. Хочется обойти все, но одного дня очень мало. Обязательно сходите на аратский рынок, на нем можно найти много разных вещей и поторговаться за меньшую цену

Отель new imperial hotel расположен в старом городе прямо у Яффских ворот в Христианском квартале, в здании 19 века. Удивительный колорит, вечером просто волшебно.

Если надо найти христианский квартал(а точнее сам храм),зайдите на рынок по левую сторону от Яффских ворот,потом сверните налево на христианскую улицу,а потом направо будет уходить улочка вниз к храму

Одного дня и двух ног явно мало)) Цены на рынках дикие, но сбиваются очень быстро и сильно.Рынок на то и рынок Готовьте мелкие деньги для автоматов с билетами на трамвай, крупные он есть отказывается

Город в первозданном виде, если не учитывать современный рынок, тренажёрный зал и иномарки, проезжающие по узким улочкам.
