Location and Contact

Location

• Abraham's Tent is located in one of the most attractive locations in Jerusalem - the old city. This ancient city is overflowing with culture. The western wall is a 3 minute walk from us. Just minutes away from Abraham's tent are multitudes of restaurants, cafes, outdoor markets, convenience stores, internet cafes, historic sites, and museums. It is easy to travel to/from the old city via walking, taxi, bus, or train. The central bus station is a close distance from Abraham's tent.
• If taking a taxi or shuttle from the airport:
• Ask to be dropped off at the Jewish quarter parking lot off of Rechov Chabad . Head 5 meters north from parking lot security booth. From there, on the right side there will be an arch framing a small alley way with the sign mishmeret hakehuna street above it. (If you are out of the parking lot and have not turned right yet, you have gone too far). Continue down the alley way, make a left, and then take your first right. Continue straight through the courtyard and Abraham's Tent will be straight ahead. There will be a banner identifying us. We are located in the Batei Machse courtyard, opposite the Rothschild building.
• If taking a bus from the central bus station to the western wall or Jewish Quarter parking lot:
• The cost for one bus trip is 6.60 ILS(Shekel) that lasts for one and a half hours.
• Take bus #1, which comes approximately every 10 minutes, to the bus stop located directly across the building of the central bus station. To verify you are at the right bus stop, look above the stop for yellow sign marked “1”(in addition to the other buses that stop there).
• Take any of the following buses; 6,8,18,21,32,74, or the 75 from the central bus station to the Machane Yehuda stop.
• Transfer to either the 38 or 38 Aleph and get off at the Jewish quarter parking lot.

• If you are coming in through the main vehicular/ pedestrian entrance to the western wall, enter through the security. Once inside, on your left there is an entry way directly to the left of the security point. Go through the entry way and up the stairs. Continue going up the stairs until you reach a plateau with a few shops surrounding you. Make an immediate left, passing 2 large painted lion statues, into an enclosed mini tunnel, continue down that pathway until you reach a set of stairs. At the top of the stairs, you will be facing a large courtyard. Make an immediate right at the top of the stairs. That
