A friend went on his own, and didn't realise how dangerous it was wandering in the muslim quarter until he was part of a group that got a Palestinian police guard. He wasn't allowed in or even near the Al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome on the Rock because he was Christian and therefore unclean.

Amazing architecture though in the old city.
