Getting There
-
Public Bus
From Holon, head to the nearest bus stop that serves line 50 or 51 towards Jerusalem. Once on the bus, stay on for approximately 30-40 minutes. You will want to get off at the 'Tzahal Square' stop in Jerusalem. From there, you can catch the light rail or take a short walk to the Wohl Archaeological Museum located on Karaite Street. The museum is about a 15-minute walk from the bus stop. Head east on King George Street, turn left onto Hillel Street, and then right onto Karaite Street until you reach the museum.
-
Light Rail
Make your way to the nearest bus stop that connects to the Tel Aviv light rail system (you may need to take a local bus or tram from Holon to reach the nearest station). Once you arrive at the light rail station, take the train towards Jerusalem. After approximately 30 minutes, get off at the 'City Hall' station. From there, walk east along Jaffa Street, then turn onto Hillel Street, and finally right onto Karaite Street. The Wohl Archaeological Museum will be on your left.

Walking
If you are feeling adventurous and want to explore Holon on foot before heading to Jerusalem, you can walk to the nearest train or bus station that connects to Jerusalem. However, this option will take significantly longer, so it's recommended to use public transport. Once you arrive in Jerusalem, follow the walking directions provided in the bus or light rail options above.
