What city is the holy city?

That would depend on which religion you're asking about. In Judaism the holy city is Jerusalem, because that was the city of David, and the location of the Temple. In Christianity, Jerusalem is recognized because of its significance to Judaism, but Bethlehem would also be considered a "Holy City" because it is considered the birthplace of the Messiah. Catholics also consider Vatican city to be "holy" because it is the residence of God's representative on earth, the Pope. In Islam, Mecca is the Holy City, and during prayers Muslims face Mecca. Historically some Caliphs also recognized Medina and Jerusalem. In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormonism), the Holy City is Salt Lake City, Utah; primarily because it was the place that the LDS community could finally settle without being kicked out by others. Unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with eastern religions to list their Holy Cities, Though I know Buddhism has several relating to life events of the Buddha.
