The Muslim Quarter Virual Tour

Jerusalem travel guide

The Muslim Quarter is one of the four quarters of the ancient, walled Old City of Jerusalem, the other three being the Jewish Quarter, the Christian Quarter and the Armenian Quarter.
The Muslim Quarter is the largest and most populous of the four quarters and is situated in the northeastern corner of the Old City, extending from the Lions’ Gate in the east, along the northern wall of the Temple Mount in the south, to the Damascus Gate – Western Wall route in the west.
The Via Dolorosa road starts in the quarter.

Baka Neighbourhood Jerusalem

Baka Neighbourhood Jerusalem

Baka is another one of the neighborhoods in Jerusalem, infected by the American Jewish invasions to Jerusalem. Enough so that if this invasion continues it seems as if soon enough the whole area of the German Colony, Baka and Katamon will become a sort of satellite neighborhood of Brooklyn. Known once for its prosperous times in the British Mandatory, when it was mostly populated by Arab Christians, today, the apartments that were resettled during 1948, serve mainly new immigrants coming from the states and France. Baka’s main street, Beit Lechem, isn’t as sophisticated as its supposed twin from the German Colony, Emek Refaim. But, acting as a melting pot for new immigrants, with the famous Ulpan Etzion (the biggest Hebrew language school for new immigrants in Jerusalem) nestled in it, you can be sure to find great European and American food in the area, proving that the absorption process is going well.

The Old City of Jerusalem

The Old City of Jerusalem

The Holiest City on Earth, surrounded by glorious walls, the Old City of Jerusalem (Yerushalayim in Hebrew, El-Quds in Arabic) is the highlight of the city, and the actual place where the mythologies of Judaism, Christianity and Islam occurred. Within its lively narrow alleys and colorful markets lie the major historical and religious sites of the world's three main religions, revealing the ancient history from the times of King David, Jesus Christ and Prophet Muhammad. It is the Dome of the Rock at the Temple Mount, the third holiest Muslim site, from where Muhammad is said to have ascended to heaven on his Night Journey. The same spot, known as Mount Moriah, is where God tested Abraham by asking him to sacrifice his son Isaac, and on which King Solomon chose to build the First Temple. This is where the Western Wall, last remains of the Second Temple and most sacred Jewish site in the world, stands today. Not far from there lies the holiest Christian site, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, held to be the location of Jesus' crucifixion, burial and resurrection. Israel from Joe Robinson on Vimeo. The Old City is divided into four quarters - the Jewish Quarter, the Christian Quarter, the Muslim Quarter and the Armenian Quarter - each one comprises its own special shrines. Walking around the streets of the Old City you will not see any distinct separation between the four parts, but you might notice the cultural and architectural differences between them.

Brown Mahane Yehuda is the fourth hotel in the Brown hotel collection in Jerusalem, brother to Villa Brown, Villa Braun in Moshava and Braun JLM which opened last February. The hotel is Located at 105 Jaffa St. next to the famous Mahane Yehuda market, which in recent years has become the center of Jerusalem's nightlife and where the best bars and restaurants of the city are located today. The hotel offers a combination of a chic urban atmosphere with local touches inspired by the colorful market. At the entrance to the hotel, in a spacious space with an industrial design and next to it a green and blooming garden, a chef's restaurant will soon open, which will turn towards midnight into a sexy cocktail bar that will host a crowd of tourists alongside local revelers until the wee hours of the night. Already at the entrance to the lobby of Brown Mahane Yehuda, you can see that the entire area has been designed in the atmosphere of the motto Work Hard, Play Harder - a New York design, dim, intimate, the kind that envelops the guest the morning after the party and eases the hangover feeling.
