NileGuide Expert tip:
Not too many buses stop nearby. Be prepared for walking and stairs.Description:
If you see a concert advertised in Sultans Pool while you're in Jerusalem--get tickets, even if you don't know who's playing. Sitting just outside the walls of Jerusalem's Old City, Sultans Pool is one of the most dramatic outdoor settings in Israel. The Pool is an ancient reservoir that allows concert promoters to put up massive backdrops and impressive stage designs. Most concerts have superb lighting and many end with a dramatic fireworks display that light up nearby Mt Zion.
