There is also much to see outside the Old City including the bustling downtown districts of East and West Jerusalem; the ancient sites and vistas on the Mount of Olives and in the Kidron Valley; and, on the western hills of the city, the dynamic Israel Museum, the powerful Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial and Museum, and the contemporary buildings that house the Knesset and the Supreme Court of the State of Israel.
East and West Jerusalem is usual full of people and vendors.
