Yemin Moshe Neighborhood

NileGuide Expert tip:

Lots of stairs, slippery in winter.

Description:

• In 1860 the builders of this neighborhood had a hard time convincing Jerusalem's inhabitants to leave the security of the Old City and settle in the first modern houses outside the walls. Today, after many changes, this is one of Jerusalem's most enchanting neighborhoods. A walk through the stone-cobbled walkways in the late afternoon, just as the Old City walls are turned a bronze color by the sun, is magical and unique way to end the day.
