Underground Jerusalem

Underground Jerusalem

Recently I learned that underneath Jerusalem is a series of labyrinthine tunnels.Too bad he did not know when I met the city ! Here we tell you more about these interesting and unexploredcatacombs .

The tunnels that run along the Jerusalem ground were used by Jews to fight the Romans.

For the intricacies of the way many tunnels underground are not open to the public . In a few months a couple of kilometers underground will open (arranged for visits), making a total of about 3 miles.

But tunnels have caused some political tension is a constant in Jerusalem. Is that the tunnels were evidently used by the Jews for hundreds of years, and this is used by Israeli politicians to justify their right over the whole of the city, now shared by Jews, Christians and Muslims. The war has not led to more problems and is simply a new argument by both cultures toreclaim Jerusalem .
