Tentang
Fakta cepat: Its slopes have been used as a Jewish burial ground for over 3,000 years, with an estimated 150,000 graves dotting the hillside. The mount offers a panoramic view of the Old City's golden dome and stone walls, a vista that has drawn pilgrims and conquerors for centuries.
Sorotan: Every Palm Sunday, thousands of Christians reenact Jesus' triumphal entry by walking down the same ancient path from the summit, carrying palm fronds and singing hymns. The 2,000-year-old Jewish cemetery here is still accepting burials, with some families paying premium prices for a spot facing the Temple Mount, believed to be the first site of resurrection.
Tips orang dalam
- Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes: the path down the palm Sunday route is steep, uneven limestone.
- The best photo spot is from the top of the Seven Arches Hotel parking lot, which is free and open to anyone.
- Skip the overpriced shops near the top and buy water from the grocery stall halfway down the hill.
- Arrive before 8 AM to have the panoramic view nearly to yourself before the bus convoys arrive.
