A new way to get to the beach

Grab a bathing suit and a towel, step into one of these globes, and zip down the mountain to the Bat Galim promenade, with its bizarre array of beachfront houses that range from pre-state Israeli stucco and Brutalist exposed concrete to refurbished Arab mansions.

Hadar: Splendor that Was

A recent weekend at a hotel in a newly restored Bauhaus building in Haifa's Hadar neighborhood opened my eyes to a part of the city I had never seen before.

 Great page. PS: Castra mole is a nice attraction on its own, having many "artistics" shops. And having a beautiful wall painting about the biblical stories

 Hi Gila, thanks for visiting my Boston page. Loved your Haifa tips/pics! Unfortunately, our planned Mid-East trip last year had to be postponed. Can't believe you got rid of your Nando's. Ours (in DC) just opened up last year, yay! -Marissa-
