Take a tour of Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, Israel – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats. The Dome of the Rock stands on the Temple Mount, one of the world's holiest sites. Also nearby is the Western, or Wailing, Wall, where Jews pray towards the Mount. The Dome of the Rock itself is a shrine for Muslims. Muslims see this place as the location of Muhammad's ascension to heaven. In the Jewish faith, the Temple Mount was the site of the Holy Temple. Christians revere it as one of Jesus' places of teaching as well as a Jewish holy site. The remarkably well preserved Dome of the Rock has stood here since 691. The shrine is covered in brightly colored tiles and the dome itself is gold-plated. This beautiful and sacred place is visible throughout the entire city of Jerusalem.
