Hanukkah 2023 Tour of Evening Jerusalem

ORMAX invites you to celebrate the Festival of Light in Jerusalem. Hanukkah in the Holy City of Israel is an unforgettable experience to see Jerusalem dressed up in New Year’s, for both tourists and locals. The excursion price includes a transfer from anywhere in Israel. The tour is dedicated to the evening time, because Jerusalem is very beautiful these days from November 28 to December 6, when the whole city is decorated with hundreds of colored lights. The people of Jerusalem set off fireworks, and Hanukkah songs can be heard in the streets.

An experienced guide will lead you through the Old City, Jewish, and Christian Quarters. What will really impress you are the Hanukkah candles lit on the main menorah, near the Western Wall.

4 Best Attractions Of Jerusalem On Hanukkah

Western Wall. On Hanukkah, a giant Menorah is erected at the Western Wall, where Hanukkah candles are lit every evening with a solemn ceremony. This is a very unforgettable and symbolic sight that will remain in your memory forever.

The Old City of Jerusalem. The evening Jewish Quarter is very atmospheric for Hanukkah. In the evening, alit Hanukkah is on every residential floor. From the windows, you can see the warm light of candles standing on the windowsills. Chanukah is also lit in the side streets of the quarter. You will hear about the tradition of lighting candles and why the Jews have maintained this tradition for thousands of years.

Tomb of King David. We will climb Mount Zion on which there is the tomb of King David and the temple of the Assumption of the Virgin. We will also go into the upper room, where the last meal of Christ with his disciples, called the Last Supper, took place.

Jerusalem market Mahane Yehuda. What is Hanukkah without traditional Hanukkah donuts? We will head to this market to feel a real winter holiday with its frosty air, songs in Zion Square, and lighting candles on it. At Machane Yehuda Market, amid the hustle and bustle of the noisy vendors, you will taste an incomparable festive donut – hot, crunchy and soft. They are sold stuffed with strawberry jam, chocolate ganache, vanilla cream, and boiled condensed milk, generously sprinkled with powdered sugar. You will not refuse this treat, the aroma of which you will feel from the street of Jaffa.
