Jerusalem
Surely there is no place on earth as holy as Jerusalem. Site of Abraham's sacrifice, King David's triumph, Jesus' death and Mohammed's ascension to heaven; the emotional impact is stunning. The Dome of the Rock, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher are among the countless reminders that Jerusalem has been conquered and reconquered in the name of God for over three millennia. See Bethlehem, the Dead Sea or Masada, where 967 Jews committed suicide rather than submit to Rome.
