Elhanan Leib Lewinsky

We’ll start off at the Israel Museum.
Among the wide variety of exhibitions, we’ll get to see the Dead Sea Scrolls – the oldest biblical manuscripts in the world, and the Model of Jerusalem during the 2nd Temple era.
We’ll drive by the Knesset – the Israeli Parliament, and proceed to the Machane Yehuda Market.
Undoubtedly, a one-of-a-kind marketplace in Israel. While strolling through the stalls, we’ll be exposed to Israeli culture and cuisine.
Prepare to overwhelm your senses with colors, smells and flavors.
Our last site is Yad Vashem – Israel’s official Holocaust memorial that bears witness to the darkest times in Jewish history.
We will make our way to the main museum; the well-put exhibitions and the never-ending testimonies will leave you speechless.
Thousands of trees are planted all around the premises to commemorate the Righteous Among the Nations and remind us that even in the hardest times, there’s always hope.
