Celebrate the holidays at the Nili and David Jerusalem Bird Observatory – one of the most important stopover sites for migrating songbirds in the middle of the city. In the fall, it provides much needed food and water for thousands of little birds who are making the long journey from Europe to Africa on their fall migration.
They invite you and your family to unique experiences in the heart of the city, right next to the Knesset.
