The City of David is an archaeological site which you can visit and see remains from settlement during the Canaanite period. At the site you can go underground to Hezekiah’s Tunnel (maybe not if you’re claustrophobic), Warren’s Shaft, the Pool of Siloam). We’d recommend a guided tour so you know what you’re looking at. There’s lots of walking and stairs and hills so you need to be physically fit. Enter via the Dung Gate and head to the visitor centre. There are bathrooms, kiosk and a shop.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 18 reviews
A tour of the National Library is a rare glimpse into realms of the past, some of them fading, and realms of the present as they take shape. The National Library houses unique collections of ancient maps and rare books, an abundance of original music recordings, ephemera and advertisements from various periods in the history of Palestine-Israel, a comprehensive press archive, and more. Library tours highlight collection items that the ordinary reader is unlikely to encounter.

A visit to Yvel was Part of an itinerary put together by Israel Unlimited but little did we know we weren’t just going jewelry shopping. We had the extreme pleasure of learning about Yvels history, how they curate their pearls and design their jewelry. The most amazing part of our visit was learning about how much they help Ethiopian immigrants by putting them through a design and jewelry school to teach them skills they need to be successful and support their families. It’s an amazing thing. I was happy to be able to purchase a gorgeous initial necklace and earring from the Biwa Collection and a mother of pearl double sided clover, as well as a pair of earring from the Megemeria collection. The staff is also absolutely wonderful. I applaud Yvel for what they do to help others and I wish companies in the US and around the world did the same. So go visit Yvel when you’re in Jerusalem, learn about their history and goals, and do a little shopping for some gorgeous jewelry that is sure to become family heirlooms. Note- I visited with my parents but I’m 34 so we didn’t fall into the “family children” or “family teenager” categories on TripAdvisor. I entered solo.
