Om
Snabba fakta: The Shrine of the Book houses the Dead Sea Scrolls, the oldest known biblical manuscripts ever discovered. More than 500,000 objects span 500,000 years of human history, making the collection one of the world's most comprehensive archaeological and art archives.
Höjdpunkter: A 1:50 scale model of Jerusalem from the Second Temple period fills an entire courtyard, covering almost 1,000 square meters with over 4,000 tiny buildings carved from Jerusalem stone. Kids and adults alike get hypnotized spotting the tiny Temple replica, complete with microscopic gold details that catch the afternoon sun.
Insidertips
- Skip the audio guide and join a free 45-minute highlights tour in English (check times at the info desk upon arrival).
- Photography is allowed in most galleries but strictly prohibited inside the Shrine of the Book so soak it in with your eyes first.
- The Art Garden contains outdoor sculptures by Henry Moore and Picasso, easily missed but worth the stroll.
- Visit the Youth Wing on the lower level for interactive art stations where you can make your own prints and pottery.

Har du hört talas om gratis guidade vandringar?
Efter att ha rest till över 30 länder finns det en sak jag önskar att någon hade berättat för mig från början, och det förändrade helt hur jag upplever nya städer.
Gratis guidade vandringar. Ja, faktiskt gratis. Ingen kreditkort krävs. Inga fångster.
Lokal guide, 2-3 timmar
Stora sevärdheter, dolda pärlor, lokala historier
100% dricksbaserat
Guider tjänar endast dricks, så de ger sitt absolut bästa
Du ger dricks efter eget tycke
I slutet ger du bara dricks efter eget tycke
Jag har gjort dessa i dussintals städer och de har varit höjdpunkten på nästan varje resa. Om du besöker Jerusalem, Israel, gör detta din första dag. Du kommer att tacka mig senare.
