Standing on the site of the royal palace in the City of David entrance plaza, looking north, one sees the south wall of Jerusalem’s Old City. The dome on the right is the Al Aksa mosque. It is somewhat less grand than the famous Mosque of Omar ( Dome of the Rock ) but they share the summit of Mount Moriah where both the first and second Jewish temples stood.
