Israeli tourism, in recent years, Jerusalem has been experiencing renewed
vitality.

Until now, visitors to the city mindful of their budgets have often missed
out on many of ancient Jerusalem's most unique sites. To enable wider access
to Old City tourist sites, at reduced cost, HolyPass was born.

support. HolyPass' website, www.holypass.co.il, offers travelers information
on free tours, printable maps, useful links and more. Further assistance is
available to visitors at the Tourist Information Office, Jaffa Gate in
Jerusalem's Old City. (Telephone: 02-6271422)

HolyPass is can be purchased at participating tourist sites, hotels, Jewish
Quarter shops and through travel agents. Passes can be given as gifts by car
rental companies, airlines and others in the tourism industry. Group passes
are available through travel agents at special prices.

HolyPass is a venture of the Jerusalem Tourism Authority, Forum for the
Promotion of Tourism in Jerusalem's Old City and the Israel Ministry of
Tourism. HolyPass is produced, operated and managed by HolyPass Inc. It has
been conceived to respond to visitors', attractions' and Old City business'
