Historical but can be scary
The city has streets so close together.
The walls are surrounding you, with cobblestone walkways going through them.
They have crossover's from building to building.
When I was there last they were a closed shop, type city. Nothing at all was open since the fighting had gotten so bad. Plus it was during Ramadan, thus any Muslim or Palestinian shops were closed due to this time.
So What I disliked this time was the closed walls feeling with nothing happening.
I felt strangely crushed with nowhere to go to.
If you have never been there, picture yourself in between brick type walls (They actually are not brick, they are just rough rocks mortared together) about 6-10 feet apart. Walking down very rough (and smoothed from yrs of many feet, donkeys, horses, wagons, soldiers, and w/e else went down these streets) cobblestones. And I said down, because in many places the walk is down or up, since it is built right over top of hills. And they did not level or fill anywhere in those days.
There were also moments where you could see the leftovers of dead carcasses left on the walkways. One person I asked said they don't worry about the carcasses since the dogs at night will take care of them.
I am not sure why truthfully, but that part with the close walled city atomosphere was a bit unsettleing.
The History of the city is awesome and you can see where the city was, and still can be, very inspiring to see.
I liked the overall visit and knowing that Jesus walked and preached there, and many prophets walked there and preached there. That is quite a thought to walk around and imagine the history of that in itself.
Also you can see the city damage inflicted from old to new. Since there is still to this day parts of the old city left and new as well. The dome sitting on top of the orginal temple mount is still a reminder that there is something very scary yet awesome to come, depending on your beliefs.
