    A walk through history. Amazing artifacts. Great explanations. Interesting displays very well set out.
    At least 3-4 hours needed to see all the main areas of Jerusalem Museum. Lovely to spend a whole day there and see the Scroll of the Book displays too plus a lovely walk in the art garden. Superb.

    Not your regular Museum
    Most people don't think of visiting a Museum on a vacation in a place like Israel, and much less a city like Jerusalem. This place is amazing, but you should REALLY hire a guide to take you through it. Otherwise, you will just be looking at things with zero context.

    Don't miss this museum
    Spent fabulous morning here. Highlight was Dead Sea Scrolls, however this museum spread over a large campus has so many exhibitions a whole day is recommended. Very friendly helpful staff add to the experience. Highly recommended

    What a very deliberate and thoughtful museum. The scrolls were absolutely fascinating and it was done beautifully.

    A variety of artifacts and artwork
    This museum is so beautifully designed with an eclectic collection of archaeological artifacts, fabulous art from all eras worldwide and exhibitions that address unqiue historical and aesthetic subjects. Come early and stay late. The cafeteria and gift shops are a nice addition…
