A sacred crossroads of cultures and religions, a city where the fates of the entire world are intertwined. "No other city has influenced the fate of humanity as strongly and deeply as Jerusalem," says Maria Kicha.
The book is about what it really is - the city of David, the city of Jesus, the city of the Ottomans, the city of the Romans, rabbis, Byzantine, Islamic, the city of the Crusaders, - in a word, the greatest of cities?! We are about to embark on an amazing journey through all layers of history, through its boundless culture that seemed to unite the ununitable. Eras of dawns, sunsets, and even complete oblivion, dying, and miraculous resurrection! Jerusalem has experienced it all - shining, mysterious, the cradle of wisdom of the whole world.
