Discover the Historic Tower of David in Jerusalem

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, start from any point in the Galilee region and head south towards Jerusalem. Use Route 65 to connect to Route 6, which is a toll road. Continue on Route 6 until you reach the exit for Route 1 towards Jerusalem. Follow signs to Jerusalem, and then to the Old City area. Once you are in the Old City, park at one of the designated parking lots such as the Mamilla Mall parking or the Jaffa Gate parking area. From there, it's a short walk to the Tower of David.

• Public Transportation - Bus

  For public transportation, take a bus from any town in the Galilee region to Jerusalem. Buses to Jerusalem are frequent, and you can catch them from major bus stations like Nazareth or Tiberias. Once you arrive at the Jerusalem Central Bus Station, transfer to light rail or bus lines that go to the Old City. Lines 1 and 38 are good options. Get off at the 'City Hall' or 'Jaffa Gate' stops, and from there, it’s a short walk to the Tower of David.

• Public Transportation - Train

  If you prefer to travel by train, take a train from the Haifa or Nahariya train stations to the Jerusalem Malha Station. Upon arrival at the Malha train station, transfer to a bus (Line 83 or 78) that goes to the Old City. Alternatively, you can take a taxi from the station to the Tower of David, which is more convenient but will incur additional costs. Expect to pay around 50-70 NIS for the taxi ride. Once you reach the Old City, follow the signs to the Tower of David.
