The City of David is
the birthplace of the city of Jerusalem, the place where King David established
his kingdom. One of the most fascinating parts of the City of David is the
tunnel of Shiloh - a 533-meter-long tunnel that was carved during the period of
King Hezkiyahu. The tunnel extends from the city to the well at Shiloh, and is
an astounding engineering feat. Its builders carved the tunnel through solid
rock beginning from opposite ends and succeeded in making the two sides meet in
the middle. If you visit the archaeological park, you can walk through the
tunnel which is partially filled with water, and come out at the pools of
Shiloh. Touring the City of David is like taking a walk through ancient
history! Now you can take history with you wherever you go with City of David
Jewelry. Each breathtaking piece is designed from inspirations of actual
archaeological findings in the Biblical city.
