About New Year’s Eve in Jerusalem
There are some naysayers who claim Jerusalem is no place to celebrate New Year’s. Granted, Jerusalem is more low key than other western cities on this holiday – rightfully so considering that January 1st is a regular work day in Israel – but many Israelis love finding excuses to celebrate and so you’ll find some beautiful dinners and fun New Year’s parties, leaving you with quite a few choices of how to commemorate the day that is known in Israel as Silvester.
