A tour tracing Jerusalem’s expansion beyond the walls using a mobile phone

Did you know that until about 160 years ago, Jerusalem was a tiny city enclosed within a wall? Who were the brave people who dared to leave the walls and build the Jerusalem we know today? What were the first neighborhoods to be built?

An independent tour in which you will visit Mishkenot Sha’ananim, hear about Montefiore and the flour mill, the Moroccan square of Mishkenot Yisrael (the second neighborhood), Nahalat Shiv’a, and many other fascinating sites along the way!

The tour is presented in a lighthearted and experiential atmosphere and is suitable for adults and children alike. It is especially enjoyable in the afternoon, when the sun paints the city in shades of red.

The tour is self-guided—what does that mean? It is a real on-site tour that you take with the help of your mobile phone! After purchase, we will open access to the tour for you, and it will be available for 14 days. The entire tour takes place through an interface adapted to your mobile phone, like an app, where you will receive directions, maps, videos, and everything else.

You can come on the tour with whomever you want, and as many people as you want. We recommend purchasing one access pass for every 3–4 people (there is no need to purchase a ticket for each person), so that it does not get crowded around the phone/tablet.

• The tour lasts approximately 1–2 hours; the exact duration is up to you.
• After the tour, you can sit in Nahalat Shiv’a (not on Shabbat) or continue for a stroll along the pedestrian mall or in the city center.
• Please arrive with a fully charged phone!!
