Constructed from a mosaic of different quarters, each with a strong identity, Jerusalem also houses the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Dome of the Rock: three holy monuments for each of the three monotheistic religions.

Outside of the old centre of Jerusalem, the Yad Vashem memorial is undoubtedly the must-see museum in the 'Holy City' .

Nahal David is the busiest and most accessible valley in Ein Gedi oasis. It's as easy for families to use as for serious trekkers.

Mitzpe Ramon is the town that overlooks the incredible crater of Makhtesh Ramon. For a few years some unusual hotels have been opening in this little town. It's a good place to stay to explore the crater.

Each time that I show friends around Israel, I take them to Ein Gedi and I can say that no one is ever disappointed! On this one site you have one of the most beautiful kibbutz' in the country, a Dead Sea beach with lots of facilities and a nature reserve with an oasis There are also lots of other activities and everything that it is possible to do at the Dead Sea can be done on one site. Of the three, I prefer the natural reserve. There are different types of walk to do but you don't have to take a long and difficult walk to find places to bathe. The reserve has two "wadis" (or valleys). The most visited and easiest to get to is Wadi David. The second, which is a little wilder, is Wadi Arugot. To really enjoy Ein Gedi nature reserve during your <a href="/israel/">trip to Israel </a>, it's better to go there in the middle of week and not in summer.
