Our tour takes place in the Jewish quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem and is themed on the return to Zion. First, what is Zion – it is from the Jewish bible and was first used as the name of the fortress King David captured when the Israelites captured Jerusalem about 3000 years ago. Then it became synonymous with Jerusalem and Israel. From the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE 2000 years ago in Jerusalem, Jews have been trying to regain again a permanent foothold in their most holy city. As Jews were exiled all around the world, Jerusalem was the magnet drawing Jews back here - returning to Zion even under the most harrowing of circumstances. On our tour, we will hear and see what happened when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem and hear stories of how Jews returned at different times over the Centuries. The loss of the Jewish Quarter in 1948 and then the reunification of Jerusalem in 1967 once again to be the Eternal Capital of Israel.
