One of Jerusalem's Best Views - From the Hurva Synagogue in the Old City

The Hurva Synagogue is a historic synagogue located in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, Israel. It is one of the most impressive and rich in history synagogues in Jerusalem, and perhaps all of Israel. Click here to view the video.

The synagogue was first founded in 1721 and was destroyed several years later. It remained in ruins for 140 years until it was rebuilt in 1864. The synagogue was rebuilt again in 2010 after it was destroyed by the Arab Legion during the 1948 War of Independence.

After climbing a lot of spiral stairs, once you reach the top, there is a balcony from which gives a great panoramic view of the Old City of Jerusalem.
