Walk down to the Dominus Flevit Church, the Garden of Gethsemane and the Church of All Nations. Enter the Old City through the Dung Gate; visit the holy sites of the three monotheistic religions represented in Jerusalem. If the situation allows ascend the Temple Mount with the Dome of the Rock. Visit the Western Wall, the last remnant of the Second Temple and the holiest site for Jews. Continue in the footsteps of Jesus along the 14 stations of the Via Dolorosa.
