If you happen to be around Jerusalem these days, when the weather is cool, there are many beautiful parks situated in Rephaim Valley where springs are still trickling. Just enter any local supermarket, purchase a small grill, a bag of charcoal, a few steaks and a bottle of wine and head out to one of these nature reserves. Entrance is free and parking plentiful. Enjoy your day.

As you can see from my extensive April 2018 review and eleven photos from then, this location is primarily (almost exclusively) about the Memorial to President John F. Kennedy- it’s known as “Kennedy Hand.” We came again this afternoon to continue our more than twenty year tradition of running up the sides of the monument in order to slap the state seals (see photos to understand).... but alas, the site is closed and locked after 4pm. So therefore, and in order to justify this review (and to be able to claim as I always do that “I visited this place), we walked to that Arthur Rubinstein Memorial. It was not clean and there were sloppy and not quiet picknickers and even a mid day bonfire. As I wrote two and a quarter years ago, it looks like a grave (not without irony, it looks like the JFK grave that I visited in January 2019 and reviewed sometime shortly after that- feel free to read that review too).... anyway, I just read a review here today by one of our TripAdvisor friends, and he wrote that the pianist’s ashes were scattered in this forest- maybe under this marker are some of the remains?... morbid thought. Anyway, enjoy my photos and remember that the main attraction here is the Kennedy Memorial, the trees planted by family members, and the great views and hiking trails. That’s why this site gets a 5 star rating- you can skip that Rubinstein stuff. Enjoy! All this is true, because “I visited this place”... today.

This is an update of last year’s 12/2018 review by me. I returned here again to lead a tour group of one 18 year old from U.S. The area remains as it was according to my previous outstanding review, so read that too. Updates- this rich and amazing historical Biblical site remains neglected and under appreciated and underutilized for tourist and pilgrimage purposes.... government departments and ministries- wake up to the potential that is here. Summary- it’s in Park Britannia, a prime and pristine hiking area. There were few if any hikers but there were some picnicking Israeli families. From the parking lot at the bottom of Tel Azeka are many picnic tables. Yes- it’s a climb to the top. Yes- the sundial still works perfectly. Now- the bas relief showing a schematic of the lands to the east is worn and old. The blight on the landscape of the awful concrete construction to the east/northeast of this site is much worse- the green verdant mountain has been destroyed by the expansion of the nearby metastasizing metropolis of House of Sun. . This Tel Azeka is an active archaeological excavation site- there were several new digging pits that were not there in 12/2018- some were blocking the previous walking trails. When we left, a tour bus of evangelical Christians (also from the U.S). arrived and descended on the parking lot... they did not seem to be the types to do the hike to the top exposed to the mid day Middle Eastern sun - we decided that they would tell their fellow church members that they had been near the Biblical site. Afterwards, we also went and drove through the forest on 4x4 road to Mitzpe Masua, the highest point in the forest and the location of the fire observation post building with the colored glass- that photo is featured here on this page. I explained how, in Talmudic times, the new month would be declared in Yavne to the southwest and a series of bonfires in mountain tops towards Jerusalem to the northwest and beyond would spread the news. This peak was part of that chain- hence its name- Torch Observation. The view across the flatlands to the coast is unobstructed. Hey/ sorry- no photos.

The Mirpesset, located at the top of the Clal Centre’s spiral, is a new kind of public space. Our vision is to combine the experience of urban nature, farming, creative workshops and a meeting place for various groups under one roof. The space is planned to enable endless types of gatherings, a place to inhale fresh air and to meet friends and make new onesץ
