GREETINGS FROM THE COMMISSIONER
 

Dear Friends,

 

Far more than just the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulcher, Via Dolorosa and Dome of the Rock, Jerusalem is a city teeming with hundreds of modern attractions and historical sites amidst breathtaking natural landscapes.

 

I would like to invite travelers of all tastes and interests from around the world to explore the nooks and crannies of my hometown of Jerusalem for an inspiring vacation of a lifetime. 

 

 

Shalom,

JERUSALEM'S MACHANE YEHUDA FOOD MARKET UNVEILED AS GOURMAND PARADISE 

Jerusalem's legendary Machane Yehuda open-air food market has developed into a gourmand wonderland, featuring more than 250 food stalls and vendors boasting a wide range of products -- from locally sourced produce, dairy products and delicacies to imported sweets and organic wines from Israel and around the world. Conveniently located just steps away from the Jerusalem city center, the Machane Yehuda market was first established in 1887 and exists today as one of Israel's most buzzing markets, where espresso bars, photography galleries and fashion boutiques sit alongside butchers, repairmen and vegetable vendors. The Machane Yehuda market has also launched a new website, featuring interactive maps, interviews with vendors and options to book special themed tours.  www.machne.co.il
