I went for a one day trip to Zichron Ya'akov. Very nice place , not too crowded and with a lot of History.
Zichron Ya'akov (in a free translation it is Jacob's Memory) was founded on 1882 by a new immigrants from romania.
This is a small place with the biggest winery in Israel (Carmel Mizrahi).
The Main street called Ha'Meyasdim and it is full with small wineries , the Aharonson house , the old cemetery , synagogues and you can visit the Carmel Mizrahi Winery for a nice tour.
People call it here Small Provance. |
