Don't be put off by the 'YMCA' name. This bldg is a historic landmark, one of the most beautiful in the city. Wonderful to enjoy a coffee on the beautiful patio. Thursday night: free Oud performance.

Sightseeing

I don't really recommend it, but it's interesting to know and if you walk that way, you'll have to pass a checkpoint.

Another place I don't recommend visiting because they won't let you in, but it's good to know why their are armed men outside if you happen to pass by.

There is no visiting Jerusalem without a visit to the Old City! Highly recommend Hummus Lina in the Christian Quarter and hot chocolate and apple strudel at the Austrian Hospice in the Muslim Quarter.

THIS IS A MUST. The old Jerusalem train station has been turned into a beautiful, colorful, fun and cultural entertainment center. Great restaurants, ice-cream, rental bikes for the bike path, music..
