Ramat Shlomo
This wall which surrounds the Walled City is two and one half miles of lime stone. It encompasses an area of approximately one square kilometer. This is the size of the Old City. The ancient city of David is located on the south side out side the wall and borders the Kidron Valley.
In front of the Jewish Quarter is the Har HaBayit (Temple Mount). Facing the Jewish Quarter is the Kotel (Western wall of prayer). It is a retaining wall of the second Temple which was restored by King Herod. However the Romans failed to destroy it.
One thing all Israelis understand is that food here is good. Israel grows almost every type of fruit and vegetable you could ask for. This is the world famous Mahane Yehuda Shuk (Market) on Yafo street in Jerusalem. Buy what is good. Buy a wide range of fruits and vegetables all grown in Israel. Israel may be the only nation in the world self sufficient in food. Also other items can be purchased here.
