  City Center
  Downtown Jerusalem is the heart of the modern metropolis, with nightlife, dining and culture to rival any major city. The area is made up of several neighborhoods, including the colorful Mahane Yehuda Market, charming Nahalat Shiva, bustling Ben Yehuda and Yafo Streets. Each has its own unique personality and atmosphere that you won’t want to miss out on.
  
  South
  South Jerusalem is an up-and-coming area that has seen the development of numerous attractions in recent years, including the state-of-the-art Jerusalem Payis Arena, which hosts some of the biggest international musical acts and sporting events. It joins places like Emek Refaim Street, Malha Mall, the Biblical Zoo, Teddy Stadium, Gazelle Valley and Ramat Rachel tourism complex in making up an area that is particularly popular with families.
  
  West Jerusalem
  West Jerusalem includes some of Jerusalem’s most charming neighborhoods and interesting attractions. Head to the picturesque Ein Karem at the foot of the Jerusalem Hills for a day of nature, quaint shops and elegant dining with a view. And for an unbeatable cultural experience, check out the Museum District, home to the world-class Israel Museum, the Bible Lands Museum, Science Museum and much more.
  
  Old City
  The Old City of Jerusalem has been a center of culture, religion and history for thousands of years, from the time of the Judean kings and the Roman era through the times of the Islamic Empire to the modern State of Israel. Every brick and stone is teeming with history. No trip to the Middle East is complete without wandering through alleys of the bazaar, walking the ramparts and exploring the Old City’s rich history at the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Temple Mount (Al-Aqsa) or Tower of David Museum.
  
  NEAR OLD CITY
  Not far from the Old City, you can find some of Jerusalem’s most vibrant entertainment and shopping centers. Mamilla Mall is just a few steps from Jaffa Gate and counts as one of the most luxurious shopping centers in the city, replete with high-end shops, Mamilla Hotel’s Akasha Spa and a collection of restaurants with amazing views. And if you follow Hebron Road, you’ll find the First Station cultural complex and the Yes Planet movie theater and entertainment center.

“Dinner next to Jaffa Gate”

Reviewed 4 days agoBy 227nicolevp

We had dinner on two occasions in this restaurant which might not look grand but the welcome we received was splendid. The dishes and drinks on offer were excellent and well prepared and the staff very attentive and kind.

“Really good moderate priced option just inside jaffa gate”

In a quiet courtyard off the hectic jaffa gate. Varied menu. Tasty food. Moderately priced. Good wine and beer. Friendly staff. Just what we needed when tired after a hectic day site seeing.

“Friendly and welcoming - an excellent find”

We had a stressful journey getting from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem so ventured out to find somewhere for dinner. We're so glad we tried Versavee - they were very friendly and welcoming and we had some delicious food. So much so, we went back the following night and were welcomed like old friends!...

We're so glad we tried Versavee - they were very friendly and welcoming and we had some delicious food. So much so, we went back the following night and were welcomed like old friends! Delicious salmon carpaccio which was actually a large salad rather than just a plate of smoked salmon. The second night I had the hot salmon which was roasted and very delicious. A great find as you can sit outside up a quiet and picturesque street which gives you lots of atmosphere but gets you out of the busy city. Nice wine served too - I had a rose which although quite dark pink was actually very dry and tasty. Quite reasonable prices too and well worth a visit. Thanks to the nice guy who served us the first night, we had a good number of Hebrew phrases which served us well. Toda raba!
