Finding parking at Wadi Nisnas is not an easy task. Thus I usually look for parking in the surrounding streets. Here are several options: 1. There are several paid parking lots along HaGanim Street (keep in mind that it is a one-way street). Or park a little further away, like Derekh Yafo 104 and Tel Aviv Street, and walk from there. 2. There is a ...
You can visit this neighborhood all year round, but my favorite time is during The Holiday of Holidays (celebrating Hanukkah, Christmas, and the month of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr). The Holiday of Holidays is an annual festival that takes place during December. And in that time, streets and houses will be decorated, and the weather will be pleasant. ...
Most of the market is located along Yohanan Hakadosh Street, and you can start at Yohanan Hakadosh Street 29 and head to the south (towards the meeting point with Wadi Street). The market itself is small. Thus most people and tours combine it with other nearby places (which we will mention later).
There are several public restrooms in this neighborhood. The first one is on the opposite side of Emil Toma Street. And there is another near Hadad Street 20.
As I mentioned before, this is a popular place for foodies. Besides the market, there are many restaurants and food stores. And we will continue exploring this neighborhood and visit some of those places.
Many stores sell sweets. Here are the most known: 1. Abd al-Hadi Sweets – Sh’Hada Street 3 2. Konditoria Hamizrach – Derech Allenby 34 3. Abbasoglu – Oriental sweets (mainly Turkish sweets) – Derech Allenby 19 Here are several photos from Abd al-Hadi Sweets: Source: official site Abd al-Hadi Sweets is located near Saint Elijah Cathedral:
As I mentioned, most food places are situated downtown. In this section, we will walk uphill on Wadi Street and see what you can find there. Here are several photos of the upper section of Wadi Street: You can also find signs and art by Museum Without Doors:
