Jerusalem Walks with Leon Gork Tour Guide

Discover Mea Shearim

 

Please note:

 

I guide the tour in the vicinity of Mea Shearim and part of the tour is to bring you, the tourist,  to a point where you can enter Mea Shearim.

 

This is because:

Visitors are only welcome in Mea Shearim if they don't appear to be tourists, this is the wish of the local inhabitants whiec we need to respect.

 

Also: Women must dress very modestly, long skirt, well below the knees, top covered to the neck, arms covered to the wrists. Photographs aren't allowed, in fact cameras shouldn't even be seen.

 

My explanation takes place outside Mea Sheaim, on the ourskirts and I tell you what to look for but I don't enter Mea sheaim with you.

 

Having a tour guide shows the inhabitants that you are tourists in which case you won't be welcome.
