this park is the highest art and the best example of how is possible to preserve the view of an ancient city and to build a useful, public space. bravo to the architects of Jerusalem

Attended Shakespeare in the park.
Wonderful.

This is a nice, calm and quiet park. There’s a bit of everything here - rugged pathways, patches of forest, open fields, fountains, and public art installations. It’s a fun place to explore and wander. There are also steps leading to a beautiful neighborhood worth walking through called Yemin Moshe. Great to visit both during the day and in the evening when the walls are lit. Stroll in the narrow streets towards it, walk on the stairs, enjoy the freshness of the running water. We enjoyed seeing the family friendly Lion Fountain on the south side of Bloomfield Garden. Just east of the fountain are where you will find very nice views of the Old City and Mount Zion to your east. At night the garden is partly lit, and a considerable part is quite dark and attracts suspicious people who hang around there. It is not always the most pleasant experience you will have.

Beautiful setting overlooking Old City walls, with many nooks and crannies to explore, made good use of by the #theaterintherough in their yearly Shakespeare performances

The Bloomfield Garden is west of the Old City at the Yemin Moshe Quarter. This is a 17 acre city park with nice open space, landscaping and leisure area good for relaxing if you need a break from sightseeing.

We enjoyed seeing the family friendly Lion Fountain on the south side of Bloomfield Garden. Just east of the fountain are where you will find very nice views of the Old City and Mount Zion to your east.

Other interesting things to see here include Montefiore's Windmill, Herod's Family Tomb and the nearby Mishkenot Shaananim neighbourhood. You are also very near the King David Hotel and impressive YMCA building.

Very green park with amazing views on the Old City walls and a lot of shade. Great to visit both during the day and in the evening when the walls are lit. Stroll in the narrow streets towards it, walk on the stairs, enjoy the freshness of the running water.
