- Location: Nahalat Shiva
Fodor's Review:
This small downtown neighborhood has a funky feel with worn flagstones, wrought-iron banisters, and defunct water cisterns. Its name translates roughly as "the Estate of the Seven," in honor of the seven Jewish families that founded the neighborhood, only the second to be established outside the Old City walls, in 1869. Salomon Street, Rivlin Street, and their in-between alleys and courtyards have been refashioned as a pedestrian district, offering equal opportunities to the keen photographer, the eager shopper, and the gastronome.
- Closed: Many establishments closed Sat. and Jewish holidays.
