Join All Israel News correspondent Oriel Moran and tour guide Levi Simon as they explore Solomon’s Pools — three massive ancient reservoirs south of Bethlehem that once stored and distributed water across more than 80 km of aqueducts to Jerusalem and the Second Temple.
Traditionally linked to King Solomon, these pools (and the sophisticated system around them) date primarily to the Hasmonean and Herodian periods and reveal the scale of Jewish life and pilgrimage in the land 2,000 years ago. Walk the lower pool, see the aqueduct channels still visible today, and discover why this site was the lifeline for Jerusalem.
