For Kids in Jerusalem, Israel


Botanical Gardens, Jerusalem, Israel

Where can you find a lake with ducks, swans and fish in desert-dry Jerusalem?
Check out the Botanical Gardens, part of the Hebrew University, but open to the public daily, located near the Givat Ram campus of the university.

Remember those adorable choo-choo trains? Well, hop aboard on this orange and green little engine and wind your way through the gardens. At the end of your visit, settle down at the lakeside Cafe Cafit for Italian espresso – and an order of gelato for the kids. While you sip and sun, the little ones can feed the black-feathered swans and gold carp.
