Jews, Muslims, and Christians alike revere Jerusalem, Israel's capitol and one of the world's oldest cities. For thousands of years, Jerusalem, which contains hundreds of major holy sites, has been a destination of sacred pilgrimage for millions of people from around the world. Paradoxically, this hallowed city has also been a focal point for war and political and social unrest. Join this Expedition to take in some of modern-day Jerusalem’s atmosphere and some of the history laid down in its ancient and sacred structures.

Borneo National Park, MalaysiaYou begin your journey in ancient rainforest that once covered all of Borneo. You start by climbing up into a canopy viewing station that overlooks the horizon of this virgin rainforest. You can see what this land would have looked like before modern human developments started to influence the landscape. Everywhere you look is an ecosystem that has evolved over millions of years, with species co-adapting into an integrated and complex web of life that provides resilience and strength.
