Description
Christmas is a holiday celebrated in many countries around the world. Many of the celebrants will be happy to know that in Jerusalem, the city where Jesus made a pilgrimage and the city where he was crucified by the Romans, there is today a Christian community with different and diverse groups. On tour, we will walk through the alleys of the Old City of Jerusalem. Here live the rich history and dramatic events that have occurred over thousands of years. The tour will begin at the famous Jaffa Gate and the walls of Old Jerusalem. It will continue towards the Christian Quarter, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, various churches, and the house of Santa Claus in Jerusalem; we will pass through the small cafes near the new gate and finish at the entrance to the French complex of Notre Dame where we will see the big Christmas tree.
