  City Center
  Downtown Jerusalem is the heart of the modern metropolis, with nightlife, dining and culture to rival any major city. The area is made up of several neighborhoods, including the colorful Mahane Yehuda Market, charming Nahalat Shiva, bustling Ben Yehuda and Yafo Streets. Each has its own unique personality and atmosphere that you won’t want to miss out on.
  
  South
  South Jerusalem is an up-and-coming area that has seen the development of numerous attractions in recent years, including the state-of-the-art Jerusalem Payis Arena, which hosts some of the biggest international musical acts and sporting events. It joins places like Emek Refaim Street, Malha Mall, the Biblical Zoo, Teddy Stadium, Gazelle Valley and Ramat Rachel tourism complex in making up an area that is particularly popular with families.
  
  West Jerusalem
  West Jerusalem includes some of Jerusalem’s most charming neighborhoods and interesting attractions. Head to the picturesque Ein Karem at the foot of the Jerusalem Hills for a day of nature, quaint shops and elegant dining with a view. And for an unbeatable cultural experience, check out the Museum District, home to the world-class Israel Museum, the Bible Lands Museum, Science Museum and much more.
  
  Old City
  The Old City of Jerusalem has been a center of culture, religion and history for thousands of years, from the time of the Judean kings and the Roman era through the times of the Islamic Empire to the modern State of Israel. Every brick and stone is teeming with history. No trip to the Middle East is complete without wandering through alleys of the bazaar, walking the ramparts and exploring the Old City’s rich history at the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Temple Mount (Al-Aqsa) or Tower of David Museum.
  
  NEAR OLD CITY
  Not far from the Old City, you can find some of Jerusalem’s most vibrant entertainment and shopping centers. Mamilla Mall is just a few steps from Jaffa Gate and counts as one of the most luxurious shopping centers in the city, replete with high-end shops, Mamilla Hotel’s Akasha Spa and a collection of restaurants with amazing views. And if you follow Hebron Road, you’ll find the First Station cultural complex and the Yes Planet movie theater and entertainment center.

We were visiting BarBaHar at the late afternoon. The place is very nice with great view. However, the food is quit expensive and below average. The main curses are very poor and so are the salads. The pizza was good and the Halumi salad too. As for the deserts the chocolate souffle was good. I would recommend this place only for coffee and cake and not for eating. This is quit sad since at least to my knowledge there is no near by place for eating.

After visiting the Stalactite cave we were ready for a vegetarian lunch. It is located at the entrance to American Independence Park which is great place for a hike (shorter or longer).

After visiting the Stalactite cave we were ready for a vegetarian lunch. It is located at the entrance to American Independence Park which is great place for a hike (shorter or longer). We set outside enjoying the breeze, the silence and the flowers. We had several appetizers including cauliflower with tahini, eggplant with tahini, and focaccia. Some took shakshuka (eggs in tomato sauce), some Indonesian salad (with tofu and rice) and some vegetable salad. We had also some deserts. All was fresh and tasty. Service was efficient. Price was moderate. Good place to revisit.

“brunch on a hilltop”

Reviewed on February 3, 2019By dropmealineNew York City, New York

Bar BaHar is high up in the Jerusalem hills, a lovely and occasionally tricky drive up a winding alpine road. It's a great place for a typical Israeli brunch -- coffee, shakshukah, and various mini middle eastern platters. Plus, they have an authentic Italian pizza oven. Go on a nice day for the fresh air.
