Parking
Street parking along Rothschild St and in the government precinct; easiest at weekends, when the ministries and the Knesset are closed.
How long to allow1 hour AgesAll ages; wide paths and open lawns take a buggy easily, and there is room for ball games and kites in the lower section. Indoor or outdoorOutdoor On Shabbat and chagimOpen Best time to goApril to June, when most of the roses are in bloom. By late summer the display is well past its best. AccessibilityPaved paths across a hilly 19-acre site; the lower section is the flattest and the easiest with a wheelchair or buggy.
Insider tips
- Over 400 rose varieties are labelled with the country that donated them — half the interest is in reading them.
- The lower part of the garden, with the lawns and pond, is the part to pick for a family picnic.
- It faces the Knesset and sits below the Supreme Court, so it slots neatly into a tour of either.
- Shade is limited among the rose beds; the trees are at the edges.
