Hotel Complex Herzel Boulevard
You can get there from the Central Bus Station,
going South on Herzel Boulevard to the Hotel Complex.
The first (North) hotel is Park Plaza.
Don't continue on Herzel Boulevard, go with East part of the complex,
along the Begin Highway.
The last hotel is Renaissance.
On Rupin Promenade (Wolfson Street) turn left to East and cross the bridge above th highway.
You will see Shalom Hotel from the bridge and Bait ve-Gan Hill to the South.
Rupin Promenade starts at Renaissance Hotel and continues 1,900 meters down to Kiriat Wolfson.
There are some places of interest along the Rupin Promenade
starting from Renaissance Hotel to East in Kiriat Wolfson direction:
0 meters to the left: Herzel Boulevard hotels complex
400 meters to the right: JOINT
400 meters to the left, the energy center of the new
Rabin Governmental Complex
500 meters to the right: Hebrew University - Givat Ram Campus
Kneset (The Parliament) is situated on Givat Ram and Rupin Promenade
and is a part of Ben-Gurion Governmental Complex (Kiriat Ben-Gurion).
There are guided tours on specific days and hours
(if you dont like personal security searching on the body - dont go there).
The Supreme Court of Israel is between the Ben-Gurion Governmental Complex
and Rabin Governmental Comlex.
You can get there from the Kneset,
going along the Wohl Rode Garden on Kaplan Street,
opposite to Bank of Israel inverted piramide
and the Ministry of Foreign Office.
Very nice building from outside and inside.
Guided tours on specific days and hours
1,900 meters
Cross the traffic light, the road going uphill.
To your left - Kiriat Wolfson.
to your right - Clor Garden
Rupin Promenade ends at Kiriat Wolfson.
You may continue straight to Terra Santa (1,000 meters from here)
and to the Old City (2,000 meters from here)
Use "Straight" signs on the main road,
even it seems to you that the roads are not so straight.
Many of us can walk 4,000 meters in one hour.
Dont even think that you will finish this rout in one day.
3 days except the old city will give you some idea.
Clor Garden
To your right - Clor Garden - small beautiful garden with the best view on the Western part of the City.
You can see from here Herzog Promenade from HolyLand to Valley of Cross and Sacher Park,
and a part of Rupin Promenade from Israel Museum to the Kneset.
Perfect place to take pictures all the day,
and one of very few places you can take pictures of sunset (in November).
Terra Santa
Continue with Ramban Street to the top of the hill.
We call this top of the hill "Terra Santa".
Nobody knows that the official name is "France Square".
To your right - Terra Santa Monastery.
To your left - Kings Hotel.
Hehal Shlomo Synagogue
Next to Kins Hotel
The Great Synagogue
Next to Hehal Shlomo on King George Street
(go inside).
