Old Jerusalem Markets and Crafts
This very old city hides stories, alleys, trades and tales that are old and even rare. On this tour, participants learn through stories and play the story of Jerusalem’s markets and why they are named as they are, and by meeting traditional trades they get the chance to ask questions and learn about rare crafts and their role in Jerusalem’s past and present.
The tour includes discovering the stories, secrets and names of the old Jerusalem markets. Participants also meet three traditional crafts: the herbalist (attar), the Armenian ceramics artist, and the broom workshop run by blind workers, and get the chance to get to know them, ask questions and learn more about their craft.
