C. D3. E. K2. B12,” and now we’re on to “city considered holy to 3 major religions.” So if you still can’t guess this one, check the answer here.

Answer to “city considered holy to 3 major religions” in Cookie Jam

Long Buzzwords are always tough to crack in Cookie Jam, and this one was no exception. But in the end, there was really only one nine-letter city that fit the hint, so there you have it:

1. City considered holy to 3 major religions – Jerusalem

Jerusalem is located between the Mediterranean Sea and the Dead Sea in the Middle East, in the region known as the Levant. It is one of the oldest cities in the world, with a history dating back thousands of years.

It’s considered the holiest city in Judaism, as it was the site of the First and Second Temples, central to Jewish worship. The Western Wall (or Wailing Wall), a remnant of the Second Temple, remains a sacred site for prayer.

The city is also sacred as the place where Jesus was crucified and resurrected. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, believed to be the site of both the crucifixion and the tomb of Jesus, is a key pilgrimage site for Christians.

Jerusalem is also the third holiest city in Islam after Mecca and Medina. Muslims believe the Prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven from the Al-Aqsa Mosque, which stands on the Temple Mount, known to Muslims as Haram al-Sharif.

Now that we’ve cracked this one, it’s time to move on to the next Buzzwords of the week. And don’t worry – we have answers for those too: “White fat product,” “fish-shaped sweet filled treats,” “young, fresh & crunchy greens.” So don’t forget to check out our other Cookie Jam guides.
