Jerusalem Day or Jerusalemites' Day: a virtual tour

Walking through the streets of Jerusalem, one can visit impressive buildings, churches synagogues, mosques, museums, religious and secular institutions, but these are just the stones from which the buildings are built. The city is actually built by its "living stones"; the communities, the people, the locals who live their daily life there, and the visitors, who shed their tears, pray in its streets, and even those who haven't been to the city but long to be there. On the occasion of Jerusalem Day, we will in our virtual tour relate to the city and its people. We will visit the main holy sites in the Old City,  and walk through its alleys. We will talk about history, narratives, religions, heritage, and culture.
