Booking a private photo expert allows you to
select the below carefully planned routes or when your photo guide
contacts you directly (your email required), to make desired changes
where possible according to your interest, including architecture
and photojournalism.
Jerusalem Old and New
Your tour will start with Jerusalem's Supreme Court
building, an architectural masterpiece. Built in 1992 it is still
considered "brand new". The participants will be able to
photograph both the exterior and the interior of the building. The
tour will continue up Bezalel street through the "Nachlaot"
group of small residential quarters. Built in the latter half of the
eighteenth century most of the original buildings still exist
although a substantial renewal program has rejuvenated the
buildings, alleys and courtyards. You will explore the many small
quarters each with it's own fascinating history and character. The
tour will continue winding up to Jerusalem's famous Machane Yehuda
market, a visual (as well as a culinary) treat. The market is filled
with food stalls of all types as well as boutiques selling
everything from jewelry to designer clothes. Jerusalem's special and
unique population mix can be seen to it's fullest in the market. We
will take a break and eat in one of the many small but excellent
restaurants or kiosks. The tour will end in downtown Jerusalem at
the corner of King George and Agripas Streets.
