Join the roomJerusalén es una ciudad en el Levante meridional, en una meseta en las montañas de Judea entre el Mediterráneo y el mar Muerto. Es una de las ciudades más antiguas del mundo y se considera una ciudad santa para las tres principales religiones abrahámicas: el judaísmo, el cristianismo y el islam. Tanto Israel como Palestina reclaman Jerusalén como su ciudad capital; Israel mantiene allí sus principales instituciones gubernamentales, mientras que Palestina la prevé en última instancia como su sede de poder. Ninguna de las reclamaciones es ampliamente reconocida internacionalmente.
