A walk through the streets of the oldest neighborhoods of the New City of Jerusalem, which expanded beyond the walls of the Old City in the mid-19th century.

From the Jaffa Gate, we continue to the recently restored Mamilla Avenue, now transformed into an elegant shopping promenade decorated with remarkable works by Israeli sculptors.

We then visit the first Jewish neighborhood built outside the walls of the Old City — Mishkenot Sha'ananim — where today famous musicians, artists, lawyers, and doctors reside. From here, visitors can enjoy a magnificent panorama of Jerusalem illuminated by evening lights.

Nearby stands the famous Montefiore Windmill, built in the mid-19th century by Moses Montefiore, and still operating today.

The tour also includes two iconic landmarks from the British Mandate period — the legendary King David Hotel and the historic YMCA Jerusalem complex on King David Street.

We continue through Nahalat Shiv'a, one of the earliest neighborhoods established outside the Old City walls, now filled with charming restaurants, cafés, and pubs.

Finally, we arrive at the lively pedestrian Ben Yehuda Street, named after Eliezer Ben‑Yehuda, the man who revived Hebrew as a modern spoken language. Bustling with people almost at any hour, it remains one of Jerusalem’s favorite places for evening leisure among both locals and visitors.
