Take the Insider's Tour of Jerusalem with Moshe Kahan
Enter the gate to a hidden world
Welcome to the Insider's Tour of Jerusalem Ever since the Roman conquest of Jerusalem, Jews have been dreaming to return to their Holy City. We have vowed "Never to forget Jerusalem." That's why Jews in every generation have longed to live here. By the middle of the 19th century, Jerusalem was overcrowded and hope for better living lay outside the Old City walls. On my Insider's Tour we will navigate the alleyways and courtyards of these neighborhoods. I will tell you the story and stories of the courageous pioneers who built the new Jerusalem outside the Old City walls, and you'll get to meet the people who continue this legacy today. On my Insider's Tour you will enter the gates that are closed to most visitors, and you'll hear and smell a different Jerusalem. I look forward to being your host.
