Every quarter of the Old City including Armenian, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, has its own climate and vibe.

As there's a story behind basically every stone of the Old City, this is the place to get acquainted with history, religious philosophy and prehistoric studies.

Or then again take yourself out of the way to the Austrian Hospice and appreciate the best housetop see in the city.

Many free celebrations happen around the Old City consistently, including the Light Festival, Knights of the Old City and Sounds of the Old City, to name only three.
