    Hiking

    "Picture with the Stone": With this stone exhibited in the museum and the lettering "Haus David" on it, the only archaeological reference to the biblical King David has so far been linked.

    "Picture with the Scrolls" At the same time it houses the scrolls of the sect of the Essenes from the Qumran on the Dead Sea. The individual writings are made accessible to the viewer in changing presentations.

    Allegedly shows Jesus the way to the crucifixion. But has been refuted.

    In the Israel Museum there is, among other things, the shrine in which the fragments of the oldest parts of the Bible that have been found are kept (over 2,000 years old).
    Very good explanations and audio guide so you don't need a guide.
