The Serene Oasis of The Garden Tomb in Jerusalem

Getting There

• Walking

  From your current location in Ein Gedi, head towards the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve entrance. Follow the main path leading out of the reserve towards Route 90. Once you reach Route 90, turn left and walk along the road until you reach the bus stop for the Egged buses. Here, you can catch a bus towards Jerusalem. Ensure you're taking bus number 486 or 487, which goes directly to Jerusalem. The ride will take approximately 1 hour and will drop you off at the Central Bus Station in Jerusalem.

• Public Transport

  After arriving at the Central Bus Station in Jerusalem, exit the station and locate the light rail station nearby. Take the light rail towards 'Mount Herzl' and get off at the 'City Hall' stop. From there, walk towards King George Street and continue straight until you reach the intersection with Conrad Schick Street. The Garden Tomb will be a short walk from this intersection on your right.

• Walking

  If you prefer to walk from the Central Bus Station, exit the station and head east towards Jaffa Street. Walk down Jaffa Street until you reach the 'Ben Yehuda Street' pedestrian area. Continue straight on Ben Yehuda Street, then turn left onto Agron Street. Walk straight until you reach the intersection with Conrad Schick Street, and the Garden Tomb will be on your right.
