20의 이스라엘가지 명소 & 주요 장소

During the time of the Crusaders, the Jaffa Gate was called the David Gate, understood as the entrance to the City of David, the former ruler of Jerusalem.

They span all continents and eras: the buildings ennobled by UNESCO with the title of "World Heritage Site," conceived and realized by people of diverse civilizations. "The White City of Tel Aviv has been declared a cultural monument. (...) In 1909, the small town of Tel Aviv was founded, north of Neve Zedek. From around 1930, the first houses and residential complexes were built... by Jewish immigrants from Germany. Between 1931 and 1956, approximately 4,000 houses were built in the 'international style,' based on the Bauhaus style." As part of the German-language television series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity," hundreds of these monuments are presented to culture-loving viewers in quarter-hour segments. The one about TEL AVIV is available in the ARD media library via the following link =>> https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/tel-aviv-die-weisse-stadt-von-tel-aviv-israel-folge-323/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS82ODQwMzcw

With several hundred film contributions, culture-loving viewers can learn about very special places all over the world as part of the series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" – which I highly recommend. Despite the diversity of the cultures and eras in which they originated, the sites have one great commonality: UNESCO has recognized them as "World Heritage Sites." These include the ruins of Masada, a fortified rock city in the Israeli desert, which owes its international fame primarily to the fact that in the first century AD, soldiers of the Roman Empire stormed the site after a complex siege – however, the nearly 1,000 inhabitants had previously committed collective suicide to avoid being captured by their hated enemies. The 15-minute film contribution (only in German) can be found in the ARD media library at the following link =>> https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/masada-israel-folge-322/3sat/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS82ODQ5Mjg4

The limestone tower was constructed in 1900 and initiated by a Joseph Bey Moyal, a Jewish businessman from Jaffa, and was made possible with contributions from all communities of Jaffa, including Arabs, Armenians, Maronites and Jews.

Suleiman the Magnificent had the Lion Gate built as part of the construction of a wall around Jerusalem in 1538 and originally wanted to call it “Bab el-Ghor” - without success. The Lion Gate has recently undergone structural changes. Like the Zion Gate, it had an angled entrance, visible through the arch on the left that still survives today. The British also tore down the rear wall to make access to the old town easier. (https://www.israelmagazin.de/israel-orte/jerusalem/die-8-altstadt-tore-2/lowentor)

A special place and always the source of conflict. When the Israelis captured Jerusalem after the six-day war, the Western Wall was surrounded by old, small houses and only a few meters were accessible. Nevertheless, this was the place where the victory was celebrated. Today the wall is mostly exposed and the large space in front of it is used for ceremonies and prayers. Anyone can touch the Western Wall and pray there, although there are separate areas for men and women. You can get small pieces of paper for prayers on site. A visit on Friday evening is particularly exciting, when Shabbat begins at dusk and the Orthodox people meet here to pray.

You can get all sorts of information there, from Christian information to bus rides... and of course a gate that takes you to the old town
