Those who visit the Wailing Wall, even as tourists, are struck by the view of the devout Jews at their devotions at the base of a wall that also supports one of the most holy sites of Islam - the Dome of the Rock. Ascending the steps into the Jewish quarter yields a breathtaking overview of the square and the mosque enclave.
Explore the Jewish quarter and you will find excavations of the old city and many hidden museums. Be aware that if you are visiting on a Friday/Saturday that everything will be shut tight for Shabbat.
