Things to do in Jerusalem, Jerusalem District: The Best Lessons & Workshops

January 25, 2022 Randal Brittian

Religious pilgrims have been traveling to Jerusalem for centuries, yet you don’t have to share their zeal in order to appreciate this city’s profound cultural and historical significance. Plan on seeing the major sights, but also leave plenty of time to walk through the streets and simply immerse yourself in the daily life of such an ancient and revered place.

Jerusalem's glass blowing studio

Hi, I'm Yael Vloch a Bezalel academy graduate of the Ceramic and glass department. I've learen with the best- amoung them in the school of DALE CHIGULI- Pilchuk in Seattle. The glass blowing studio of Jerusalem offers exciting workshops in glass blwoing! Here you will learn an create your very own glass objects. You can come with your friends and family to enjoy. No prior knowledge needed! the workshop is around 2-3 hours suitble for up to 14 people. If you realy want- you can also come for an intro course. At the workshop we are going to work with a torch , and because I want you to succeed to make it by yourself - I suggest simple things- such as glass candies. All of my workshops are private! include an introduction ( flame working and a short demo before guests are invited to try it out for themselves. ) More information: * kids from the age of 8 *inclouds metirials * you take back your own souvenir *located near the "First Station"

My family and I looked for a great activity to do for the rainy day we had two days ago and found this gem. All the reviews were great and decided it would be a cool idea for the whole family. Long story short, it WAS!!! My two boys ages 4 and 7 had an awesome time and so did my wife and I. The whole building your own mezuza and decorating it was fun and enjoyable to do. I would reccomend it to everyone. Uri (the instructor) was very kind, patient, and knowledgeable during the whole process. Big Fan!!!
