    During the months of Elul and Tishrei, Jerusalem beckons to wake us up from the past towards the future in the New Year.<\/p>

    Come, take a tour in the spirit of Selichot. Begin at the Tower of David, the connection between the new museum and the Old City, and finish with Selichot prayers at the Western Wall.<\/p>

    Tour includes entrance to the Tower of David Jerusalem Museum and the new galleries, and ascending to the observation point, set against the lights of the Old City\u2019s homes. From there, walk through the streets of the Jewish Quarter to the Western Wall.<\/p>

    Meeting point: The Angelina Drahi Entrance Pavilion at the western entrance to the Tower of David, across from the Mamilla Mall
    End point: Western Wall Lookout.<\/p>

    The tour does not include entrance to synagogues.
    The main portion of the tour takes place within the Tower of David Jerusalem Museum. The tour in the Jewish Quarter and entrance to the Western Wall is towards the end of the tour.<\/strong><\/p>

    During these dates, large crowds are expected in the area of the Old City and adjacent parking lots. Please plan accordingly.<\/strong><\/p>

    <\/p>
