Ashdod (Jerusalem), Israel Cruises

Ashdod (Jerusalem), Israel Cruise Port

• Known as the place where Jews built the Temple, Jesus was crucified and Mohammed rose to Heaven, the Old City of Jerusalem has a special way of bringing together people from different religious backgrounds, cultures and faith for spiritual and educational purposes. It is indisputably the most attractive place in Jerusalem based on its historical importance.
   
• The only remnant left standing in the holiest site of the Old City of Jerusalem known as The Temple Mount by Jews and Christians, and Noble Sanctuary by Muslims is the Western Wall. This is an extraordinary place to experience spiritual fervor in a captivating and powerful way as you write a note or prayer on a piece of paper and push it into a crevice in the wall or lean against the wall to offer up prayers. This humbling and moving experience keeps visitors coming back year after year!
   
• The Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial is a solemn place where victims and heroes of the Holocaust have been memorialized. This educational, informative and thought-provoking memorial stands a great reminder of the dangers of racism and prejudices. You will come across a collection of names, photos, documents and personal artifacts of the Holocaust victims as a way of preserving their memories.
