Haifa today is one of the most interesting cities in Israel. Unfortunately, excursions cover only a few interesting places of the city, and even many residents of Israel do not know the rest.
In Israel, they say that while Jerusalem prays, and Tel Aviv rests, - Haifa works.
There is a trading port of the country and a very beautiful embankment (the name of the city is in translation from Hebrew means a beautiful shore).
The most famous tourist facility is the Bahai Gardens. This multistage (1400 steps) beauty is on Mount Karmel. This is the World Religious Center of Bahai. Here is such beauty and purity, which simply captures the spirit. It seemed to me that I had not seen such a clean park before anywhere.
Animal lovers will be interested in the High Bar Reserve and a small, but very cozy Haifsky Zoo. Very nice peacocks in it.
One of the most interesting places for walking, I would call the German Quarter. It is built by the Germans - Protestants who moved to Palestine from Germany. Those who were in Germany will immediately notice the similarities and German style. Here are wonderful cafes, interesting shops. There are several very interesting houses that can be visited.
I especially want to mention the cultural center "Castra" shopping center. No need to be confused with the brand "Castro"
This center is at the very entrance to the city.
Very interesting building itself, the walls of which painted the Austrian artist. The world's largest mosaic is not the biblical themes here.
And the species that open if you exit the inside of the square, just hard to comment.
It is very interesting to go to the museum of dolls, which is located in the center, among numerous art stores.
Many plots will be recognizable by you.
If you want to have a snack, you can go to the Italian restaurant and continue the walk.
How do you like the audience?
In this building there is some kind of special aura, it is not only my opinion, but also many people with whom we talked about it.
The second floor runs the artist. Here he writes and sells his work. You can choose for every taste, and prices are very democratic. The master himself does not speak Russian (only Hebrew and English), but his assistant Marina will help you not be lost and decide on the choice.
Here is such she, beauty Haifa.
I almost forgot to say about the university. In Haifa, there is a very prestigious technical university, it is called technical. But not many know. That there is a wonderful museum. Constantly acting artistic, historical, archaeological exposition, a wooden ship, which was found at the Mediterranean Sea. In addition to permanent expositions, there are periodically changing. Temporary, which even more attracts attention to the museum. Well, it's nice that the museum works even on Friday and on Saturday, the truth only before lunch - so do not be late!
