It is an extension of [[Temple Mount]]. There are a lot of churches and many little [[Christian]]s and [[Jewish]] [[Cemetery|cemeteries]] in the area of Mount Zion. Half of the Mount Zion is in the Old City, in the Jewish and Armenian Quarters. The grave of King [[David]] is at the top of Mount Zion. In the past there was a small [[cable car]] that connected the mountain to the [[Gehenna|valley below]] and the Old City. Today the cable car room is a museum inside an old hospital building. == Other websites == {{Commonscat|Mount Zion Cable Car}} * [http://www.gemsinisrael.com/e_article000003947.htm the Mount Zion Cable Car in the Gems in Israel website] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120813051739/http://www.gemsinisrael.com/e_article000003947.htm |date=2012-08-13 }} * [http://my-country-israel.com/en/Museums/Jerusalem_and_the_Dead_Sea/The_Cable_Car_Museum the Mount Zion Cable Car in mycountry israel website] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160507153207/http://my-country-israel.com/en/Museums/Jerusalem_and_the_Dead_Sea/The_Cable_Car_Museum |date=2016-05-07 }} == Gallery == <gallery> File:Jerusalem, Zion Gate.JPG|[[Zion Gate]] File:Jerusalem Tomb of David BW 1.JPG|[[King David Tomb]] File:Last Supper Room Panoramic.jpg|[[Cenacle]] File:Kidron jerusalem (110).JPG|[[Mount Zion Cable Car]] File:Entrance to C
