Jerusalem Walls National Park

The old city walls near the Jaffa Gate.

Jerusalem Walls National Park (also known as Jerusalem Walls-City of David National Park[1]) is an Israeli national park located near the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem. The national park was designed originally to surround the old city from all sides, to separate between the old city and the new constructions surrounding it while at the same time connecting between them, while preventing construction near the walls.

The National park includes the site of the City of David on the southern part and connects to the Emek Tzurim National Park on the Northern-eastern part.
