Old jerusalem Surrounded by city walls, this historic area is home to a holy place for Jews, Christians and Muslims, and is truly a breathtaking sight. Recognized by UNESCO asWorld Heritage。 |
East jerusalem From 1948 to 1967, it was once part of Jordan's control. Including the entire east of the city, but also some suburbs in the northwest and southwest. East Jerusalem is home to 250,000 Muslims and Christians, as well as nearly 200,000 Jews living in communities built in 1967. The area adjacent to the old city is full of religious and historical attractions. (The old city itself is part of East Jerusalem politically, but we will describe it in another article.) |
West Jerusalem Also known as the New Jerusalem, it has been a part of Israel since 1948. It is the modern commercial center of the city and has been the focus of development in the capital from 1948 to 1967. |
Haridi area The vast majority of this area is where Haredi Jews live. Compared with other areas in Jerusalem, this area brings a unique feeling to the city. Most of these neighborhoods are located in West Jerusalem, but since 1967, the green line in the northwest corner of East Jerusalem has become some new neighborhoods. |
Ain Kerem An ancient village absorbed by the development of Jerusalem. Contains art galleries and churches. |
