Jerusalem

by leffe3 - last update: Jul 11, 2009

Oh Jerusalem. One of the most beautiful cities, one of the most problematic of all cities. The centre of the three major monotheistic religions and all the associated issues.
Clad in the Jerusalem stone, the city presents a harmonious whole. At least on the surface. Not an easy place to be - not only because of the security situation, but also you believe that the weight of the spiritual environs descends on your shoulders as soon as you enter the city.
It is nevertheless beautiful, and not just the Old City. Situated high in the Jerusalem hills, some 1200 metres above sea level, the climate is lovely. Hot and dry in the summer months, cool in the winter (with occasional snow). Glorious museums, historical sites coming out of your ears, a young and vibrant social scene...
