Back to Basics … Where is the “City of David”?

HISTORICAL SITES IN ISRAEL

City of David

The city of
Jerusalem was originally built around the Gihon Spring, on the southeastern hill to the south (left) of the Temple Mount, which is today crowned with the gold-domed Dome of the Rock. Jerusalem has been continuously inhabited since at least 3000 B.C., but for it was only in the time of Solomon that the city limits expanded beyond the southeastern spur, known today as the “City of David.”http://www.bibleplaces.com/?gclid=CNq3gO2LtLgCFVOe4AodtVoAqwSee More
