Jerusalem has a long and complicated history. It’s one of the most controversial cities in the world because Jews and Muslims both want control of it. All three religions can trace their roots back to Abraham, who is considered the “father” of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. I chose Jerusalem because it is a very religious place, and I thought it would be a very cool place to learn about. Jerusalem is a very sacred place to the religion Islam and Christianity and Judaism. There are over 12 places of holy buildings. The golden dome symbolizes the city.
A little bit about the city itself. Jerusalem has an “Old City” that is thousands of years old, as well as more modern buildings. There are open-air markets making the town pottery. You can walk around the city in like an hour. In the “Old City” one fact that surprised me is that instead of cars on certain tint streets they use donkeys because their streets are so narrow. Walls of Judaism held against attackers and war. Jerusalem needs to stay sacred because it is such a religious place that holds many important places for religions.
