Some of Gilo's land was owned by Jewish institutions prior to the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, though because the neighborhood is located in territory captured by Israel during the Six-Day War in 1967 ("East Jerusalem"), it is often considered an Israeli settlement under International Law.
Gilo lies on Slaiyeb mountain in the southwest quadrant of Jerusalem. It is separated from the more urban downtown by a large, forested recreation area. To Gilo's south, a deep gorge lies between it and Beit Jala. The Tunnels Highway to Gush Etzion runs underneath it on the east, and the settlement of Har Gilo, which shares its name, is visible across the gorge on the adjacent peak. North of Gilo are the Jerusalem neighborhoods of Beit Safafa and Manahat.

The temple exterior is a concrete hemisphere carried on eight squat arches. Within the arches is a platform supported on columns. This raised platform, standing free of the walls, is the temple floor. The whitewashed, hemispherical interior is bare of ornament, yet in a sense is adorned by light, which ripples up from below on all sides. There are no windows.
