Jerusalem Hebrew: יְרוּשָׁלַיִם Arabic:القُدس‎located on a plateau in the Judean Mountains betweenthe Mediterranean and the Dead Sea, is one of the oldest cities in the world.It is considered holy to the three major Abrahamic religions—Judaism,Christianity and Islam. Israelis and Palestinians both claim Jerusalem as theircapital, as Israel maintains its primary governmental institutions there andthe State of Palestine ultimately foresees it as its seat of power; however,neither claim is widely recognized internationally.During its long history,Jerusalem has been destroyed twice, besieged 23 times, attacked 52 times, andcaptured and recaptured 44 times. The oldest part of the city was settled inthe 4th millennium BCE. In 1538, walls were built around Jerusalem underSuleiman the Magnificent. Today those walls define the Old City, which has beentraditionally divided into four quarters—known since the early 19th century asthe Armenian, Christian, Jewish, and Muslim Quarters. The Old City became aWorld Heritage site in 1981, and is on the List of World Heritage in Danger.Modern Jerusalem has grown far beyond its boundaries.According to the Biblicaltradition, King David established the city as the capital of the united Kingdomof Israel and his son, King Solomon, commissioned the building of the FirstTemple. These foundational events, straddling the dawn of the Ist MilleniumBCE, assumed central symbolic importance for the Jewish People. The sobriquetof holy city (עיר הקודש, transliterated ‘irhaqodesh) was probably attached to Jerusalem in post-exilic times. Theholiness of Jerusalem in Christianity, conserved in the Septuagint whichChristians adopted as their own authority, was reinforced by the New Testamentaccount of Jesus\'s crucifixion there. In Sunni Islam Jerusalem is thethird-holiest city, after Mecca and Medina. InIslamic tradition in 610 CE it became the first Qibla, the focal point forMuslim prayer (Salah), and Muhammad made his Night Journey there ten yearslater, ascending to heaven where he speaks to God, according to the Quran. As aresult, despite having an area of only 0.9 square kilometres(0.35sqmi), the Old City is home to many sites of seminal religiousimportance, among them the Temple Mount and its Western Wall, the Church of theHoly Sepulchre, the Dome of the Rock and al-Aqsa Mosque.Today, the status ofJerusalem remains one of the core issues in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.During the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, West Jerusalem was among the areas capturedand later annexed by Israel while East Jerusalem, including the Old City, wascaptured and later annexed by Jordan. Israel captured East Jerusalem fromJordan during the 1967 Six-Day War and subsequently annexed it. Currently,Israel\'s Basic Law refers to Jerusalem as the country\'s \"undividedcapital\". The international community has rejected the latter annexationas illegal and treats East Jerusalem as Palestinian territory occupied by IsraeThe international community does not recognize Jerusalem as Israel\'s capital,and the city hosts no foreign embassies.According to the Palestinian CentralBureau of Statistics, 208,000 Palestinians live in East Jerusalem, which issought by the Palestinian Authority as the capital of Palestine.All branches ofthe Israeli government are located in Jerusalem, including the Knesset(Israel\'s parliament), the residences of the Prime Minister and President, andthe Supreme Court. Jerusalem is home to the Hebrew University and to the IsraelMuseum with its Shrine of the Book. The Jerusalem Biblical Zoo has rankedconsistently as Israel\'s top tourist attraction for Israelis
