Walk here to understand the Old City as a neighborhood as well as a set of monuments. The quarter extends from the northern gate area toward the Temple Mount / Al-Haram al-Sharif, and the Via Dolorosa begins within it. Its street network connects Muslim sacred geography with Christian pilgrimage routes and the approaches to the Western Wall.
What to look for
The market lanes carry you inward from Damascus Gate.
The Via Dolorosa begins within the quarter.
Useful to know
Use Damascus Gate as one orientation point and follow the lanes toward the Via Dolorosa or sanctuary approaches.
Check access separately before planning entry to a religious site within the quarter.
