Guest blogger Josh the Intern shares his Top 5 Jerusalem synagogues (which you may not have heard about):

1) Aleppo synagogue in Nachalot - be sure to check them out for pre-dawn Bakkashot in the winter months

2) Neo-Bratslaver synagogue in Katamon - lively mix of real Bratslaver hasidim and those whom their niggunim and nusach have inspired

3) Shir Chadash in Katamon - one-stop source for a Carlebach Shabbat

4) Yemenite synagogue - for a taste of one of the oldest, unchanging Jewish communities (some say the closest thing we have to what Temple services may have sounded like)

5) Sha’arei Sheinah - most Israelis’ favorite synagogue of all
