Mount Zion is the dominant Western Hill, just outside of old city walls of Jerusalem, near the Zion Gate.
Important sites on Mount Zion are Dormition Abbey Basilica, King David’s Tomb and the Room of the Last Supper.
At the end of the Roman period, a synagogue was built at the entrance of the structure known as David’s Tomb, probably based on the belief that David brought the Ark of the Covenant here from Beit Shemesh and Kiryat Ye’arim before the construction of the Temple.
