Here we are, in Ancient Jerusalem.
Here is a map of the topography of Jerusalem, and surrounding area.
Note that the Temple and the Upper City both sit upon ridges; thus, the lower city sits in a valley known as the Tyropoeon Valley.
Here is a simple map providing scale.
Here is a map giving details of the locations of prominent features of the city, of which all residents are aware.
Legend:
1. Temple Plaza
2. Palace Compound
5. Pool of Siloam
6. Rose Gardens
11. City Archives
13. Phasael Tower
14. Hippicus Tower
15. Mariamme Tower
17. Ginnoth Gate
19. Upper Market
21. Hasmonean Palace
22. Town Hall
23. Theatre
24. David's Tomb
25. Palace of the High Priests
36. The Temple

(unmarked points are notable areas after the time we are dealing with. I left them out to simplify)
Here is some flavor, so you all have an idea of what the city actually looks like:
Temple Plaza, to the right of the image, leading up to the temple steps and gate.
The Pool of Siloam
From left to right - Hippicus, Phasael, and Mariamne Towers
The Hasmoneon Palace
The Tomb of David
Palace of the High Priests
The Temple (upper left corner provides interior view)
The North Gate (not marked on the map, far right corner)
More to come. Also, by the way, these photos are all of models, so if the scale of the trees in the background seems off, that's why. Don't let it confuse you.
