חניה
There is no easy parking at the site. The Karta and Mamilla paid lots by Jaffa Gate are about a 20-minute walk (the park itself suggests taking a taxi from there); the small Mount Zion / David's Tomb lot is about 9 minutes away but has very few spaces. Coming by bus or light rail, or by taxi through Jaffa Gate, is usually less painful than driving.
איך מגיעים
Buses 1, 3, 38 and 2 serve the Western Wall; from the Kotel it is a 2-minute walk out through Dung Gate. Taxis may drive in through Jaffa Gate at any hour.
כמה זמן להקצות1.5-2 hours for the self-guided route גילאיםTunnel entry is recommended from age 5. Physically demanding: many steps, a steep ridge and a long narrow underground tunnel with water up to about 70 cm deep. מקורה או בחוץמקורה וגם בחוץ בשבת ובחגיםסגור מתי הכי כדאיEarly morning in summer; the ridge is exposed with little shade. Avoid chol hamoed, when the tunnels are at their most crowded. נגישותNot wheelchair or stroller accessible - the official route description states it includes steps and walking in an underground tunnel.
טיפים מקומיים
- Book a time slot online; last entry to the water tunnel is 1.5 hours before closing.
- Hezekiah's Tunnel holds water up to ~70 cm - wear shoes that can get wet and pack a change of clothes.
- Prefer to stay dry? Take the Canaanite tunnel instead; same site, no wading.
- A ₪7 shuttle saves the steep climb back up from the Pool of Siloam.
- Closes 14:00 Friday and all Shabbat, so Friday visits must start early.
