Nahalat Binyamin

Nahalat Binyamin Review

The selection at this street market, open Tuesday and Friday, is broad—ranging from plastic trinkets to sophisticated crafts such as hand-carved wooden boxes, attractive glassware, and handmade silver jewelry. Nahalat Binyamin is further enlivened by a profusion of buskers. For a finishing touch of local color, cafés serving cakes and light meals line the street. At the end of the fair is a large Bedouin tent, where you can treat yourself to a laffa with labaneh and za'atar (large pita bread with tangy sour cream, sprinkled with hyssop, a mintlike herb).
