Hezekiah's Tunnel








This is called Hezekiah's Tunnel! It goes underground, for 1,750 feet through solid rock, from outside the old city to the inside. King Hezekiah had it dug for a source of water in 700 BC during the Assyrian invasion. It was nice and cool, and they require you to bring flashlights! It is thigh deep in some parts, but mostly ankle to mid calf. This was a really cool experience!!!
