Mahmoud Darwish Museum
Mahmoud Darwish Museum
May 19, 2024

  Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish was buried on this hilltop in Al Masyoun after his death in 2008, and this recently completed complex in his honour is certainly a grand tribute. The museum itself is a little underwhelming (exhibits include Darwish's final boarding pass, briefcase and desk) but the gardens and outdoor theatre with views across the city is a pleasant enough spot.

  A taxi from downtown will cost 15NIS to 20NIS, but if you can find a sherut going this way, it is just 3NIS.
