How in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv get along

How in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv rightly finds itself as a newbie is not easy. In the first days I was wondering how much in my life and I have not read much about Jerusalem but apparently no one took the bus because of this practice, I could not get information. So I want for my latest findings to write down here for everyone who also are planning a trip there.
If you're in Tel Aviv arrived at the airport and has made all the checks you need to take a taxi but can not necessarily with the Railway and train to Tel Aviv To drive Central Bus Station. The train station is connected to the airport and signs. Only, and it has to get used to it, at the entrance to almost all public buildings there are controls, the bags must be opened, the bags are placed on the assembly line and the train I even had my passport vorzeigen.Also to the train, there are controls , you can get tickets at the counter or vending machines for NIS 12 (NIS, 2.80 €), taxi costs about 100 NIS (20 €). The Central Bus station (Haghana station) is only one stop from Ben Gurion entfernt.Man goes (on the Haghana station) then up the stairs, turn left and runs about 5 minutes to the bus to station.Möchte go on to Jerusalem, you go back and get a check in a relatively large department store or arcade of shops and dining. Here goes / you drive in the 6 th Flour (signposted) and buy a ticket at the counter or from the driver for 17 Nis (3.40 €). If you can exit to the bus is not the same place you just go in the outer circle then you do not miss it. You have to think of it as a ramp or parking on the the bus is then and then shuts down. The journey takes about 45 minutes, the bus drivers are trained people driving very fast and know the curves down to the smallest corner. So be sure to get there and back. It is best to not come to a On Shabbat, the people are busy and everything is full of people and everyone still wants to buy everything and get home. Right before the final whistle for a newcomer it can ever be confusing. And only take
no bulky case, you dragged himself silly and stupid and must always be helped in the controls and the people walking by quickly and you will get nowhere. I have so made my experiences. Nevertheless, one very helpful, and helps lead the way just in case also contribute.
arrived in Jerusalem, again in an arcade or department store, you go deeper with the escalator one floor and go through the exit, outside on the other hand, there are many bus stops and you just need to know wherever you want.
Would you go to the Old City is the 18, 20, 21, for example, the price is in the city of Nis 5.5 (1,10 €), also ride it fast, so quick to decide otherwise, the bus drives away but the next few minutes will come later, so no Panik.Ihr hopefully have a map handy so that you get roughly know where. The bus No 20 runs as the whole street down Yaffo Street to the old City Schlomtsiyon If one wants is to get on top on the level of the Central Post Office and runs straight ahead, on the KTzahal Street sees and even the walls of the City of David. a smaller path running down, next is the great thoroughfare Khativat Yerushalayim. If you walked down the road is seen from far away to score, that's the Yafa gate. All further purely in the gate or the gate through and you get to a place with Citadel Tower of David, and many shops for tourists, including tourist information. Here you will also
Youth Hostel and other accommodation ideal for the backpack tourist but never for large heavy suitcases, I stress this again. Taxi in abundance and relatively cheap, you can choose.
Assuming left the place a little further to get to the underground market consists of numerous programs and narrow. That means the left and right are shops with all kinds of tourist services and, to the center can run it then, many groups of visitors wind their way through it. If one is alone on the road, rather explore only a few programs running otherwise you are welcome.
this oriental market you walk down until you see on the right side of a small, almost inconspicuous stairway that is the St.Marks Way or Street, certainly an old Bedouin path to this podium goes high (at the end sits a very are nice gentleman and sells beautiful scarves, etc.) and runs the St.Marks entlang.Auch here are many low-cost accommodation for young people from (40Nis). At the end of St.Marks you go to the right (indoor vault) as long until you see stairs on the left, this is you down, come to a place and keep to the left to right arc is, that you go through, back down stairs and on since her Kotel. We find that in any case, the people are very helpful as well. The 20 bus
term can also drive up to Yad Vashem, or at least near, and then run a play.
shopping is the most interesting and fairly priced at Yehuda Market, just as long as the 20 bus to get to their market on the left see, or by the Jaffa Gate The Jaffa Street along walk to King George Street, in the left turn to Agripas the street, a small road turns right by the King George. This road all straight walk up, then it is also directly to the market and spot you want to eat water. The market is open Man Heard, divided in some courses and not understand what the Europeans see as a market. He is therefore on the right side, but is related to but good. Along the way, it is also a small art store on the right side with three Internet sites for 15 Nis the hour. It is very pleasant for a woman no problem. Another tip, in the small shops on the left and right, there are 3 packs of biscuits for 10 Nis and three juices for 10 Nis. For the budget conscious the whole gut.In Schekelladen you can get three cents for 1 shekel handles, and much more, so just for 20.
Other things are more expensive for it again. Shortly
to Tel Aviv. From
Yerusalem you can drive back from the Central Bus Station in Tel Aviv Central Bus Station. From there, there are small yellow buses for about 10 persons suitable and cost 5 shekels. The 16 can directly go to the beach and there is little money for Youth Hostel. The beach is very nice and relaxing and Tel Aviv is also interesting to look at who it loves religiously goes to Jerusalem. Otherwise
was in addition to the efforts of the whole trip worth their experiences, I love this country and this city and the people and the religion and its potential. I will stay here and go back again someday for good, for sure.
