Although the archaeological site of Jericho looks like an ordinary hill at first glance, it is considered to be the oldest city in the world. People have lived here continuously for over 9,000 years, and the falling walls of Canaanite Jericho are described in the Bible. However, I was most impressed by the cable car ride to the Mount of Temptation, where I admired the stunning panorama of the area from the walls of the Greek monastery.
