No other city in the world ignites passions like this one. For three of the world’s major religions, it is a holy, sacred place.

For its inhabitants, it is a vibrant, cosmopolitan city with international flair.

For us, it is home.

To be here is to stand at the interface between the past and the future.

If you want to discover what it can mean to you – search the past, dream of the future and ignite your passions – you’ve come to right place.

Here, you’ll find the real insider’s scoop, not just the standard highlights – although I’ll show you those, too, of course. But I’ll also take you by the hand through fascinating byways that no tour bus ever would.

Along the way, I’ll share with you:

• Which holy sites not to miss
• Luxury hotels that are also important historical landmarks, like the King David
• Where the natives go for authentic Israeli food
• Our favorite one-day walking tours of the Old City
• Ancient history
• Photographs and videos
• The best kids' activities

• Our favorite places for a romantic evening out
• Colorful local legends

The information you will find here is for real, not from some tourism office. I came here as a tourist myself more than 25 years ago. I fell in love with the city and came back as often as I could, until the day I could make it my home. Since then, my family and I have made it our business that anyone who came to visit us here learned to love it as much as we do.

We hope you will, too!
