Into the Heart of Jerusalem :
A Traveler's Guide to Vacations, Celebrations, and Sojourns - From the Wailing Wall to the Dome
of the Rock to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem is an
awe-inspiring place, a city steeped in history and sacred to three
religions. But, as Arlynn Nellhaus explains in this one-of-a-kind
traveler's guide, it is also a vibrant contemporary metropolis, an urban
center with its own rhythms, customs, and special places. Nellhaus, an
American who has lived in Jerusalem for more than a decade, offers a
treasure trove of up-to-date information on itineraries, accommodations,
restaurants, and historical sites. A city soaked in history and sacred to three religions, Jerusalem
is also a vibrant, contemporary urban center. Nellhaus, an American
resident of Jerusalem, delivers up-to-date information on itineraries,
accommodations, restaurants, historical sites, and cultural mores. 40

Israel on the Gulf of Aqaba, the Club Med Resort Coral Beach is full of

its Kosher restaurant and grill menu, its warm decorative scheme and
swimming pool, Coral Beach offers an unusual vacation, interspersed with
dives into another world and excursions* into another age. *At an extra
