The Old City is surrounded by stunning 16th century fortified walls and the streets are of stone and flanked with buildings made from the same Jerusalem stone. The Old City of Jerusalem is a lively, bustling place with market stalls, churches, mosques, synagogues, homes, restaurants and stores. Among the attractions within the Old city Israel tour packages and day tours visit the Western Wall, follow the Via Dolorosa and tour the Holy Sepulchre Church. In addition to the Old City day tours and Israel tour packages visit the Yad VaShem Holocaust Museum, one of the finest in the world focused on the events of World War II and the experiences of Jews during the Holocaust. The museum holds genuine artifacts, authentic documents, historic photographs and video testimonials from Holocaust survivors. One of the highlights of the Israel tour packages and Jerusalem day tours is a trip to the Mount of Olives which stands opposite the walls of the Old City across the Kidron Valley. The Mount of Olives is the site of several churches marking the locations of New Testament events. It is also a lookout point across the city and over the Old City walls onto Temple Mount.
