Jerusalem

Jerusalem, Israel

An old city small enough to cross on foot yet holy to three religions at once, markets that have run the same alleys for centuries, and a tension in the air that makes the history feel current rather than roped off.

The best time to visit Jerusalem is Mar–May, Sep–Nov, when typical daytime highs reach about 29°C (85°F).
