Jerusalem 1920s in color

I colorized, restored, and created a sound design for this 1925 footage of Jerusalem, featuring panoramic views from the surrounding hills, including Mount Scopus, the Mount of Olives, the Old City, and the new city. The film showcases architectural landmarks such as the fortified walls built by Suleiman the Magnificent, the Haram esh-Sharif, the Dome of the Rock, Al-Aqsa Mosque, and the Western Wall, part of the ancient structure of the Temple Mount. It also presents detailed views of the Old City from the northwest, including the Franciscan Monastery of San Salvatore, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Church of St. John the Baptist, as well as the western fortifications. Within the Old City, the footage reveals the vibrant atmosphere of its markets and streets, with scenes of small businesses, daily trade, and people gathering near the Jaffa, Damascus, and Herod Gates. It also depicts water distribution efforts during a period of drought and everyday activities in the historic quarters
