Jerusalem, of course, is not only the capital of Israel, but also one of the world’s most famous cities. Its incredibly rich history means it’s a focal point for the three main faiths – Christians, Jews and Muslims, who ALL hold Jerusalem close to their hearts.

1. Yad Vashem

 

 

This official memorial site to the millions of Jews lost in the Holocaust is a must-add to your things to see in Jerusalem bucket list, simply because it provides an amazing glimpse into the soul of Israel.

below are the list of beautiful place to visit in Jerusalem:

2. Old City of Jerusalem

3. Israel Museum

 

 

The Israel Museum is without question one of the very best in the world. With a huge range of exhibits, ranging from artifacts and ancient documents to Israeli art, this is a place that will over even the most jaded of tourists.

Be prepared to be moved, emotionally and spiritually

The Tower of David Citadel is located right within the walls of the Old City, next to Jaffa Gate, but often gets overlooked. Don’t make that mistake!

The Jerusalem Biblical Zoo typically makes it to the top of the most-visited sites in Israel list every year, and it’s not hard to see why.

9. The Knesset

 

 

The Knesset (yep, you have to pronounce the K) is the legislative branch of the Israeli government, the only democracy in the Middle East.
