The tour begins at the Yehoram Gaon exhibit at the Tower of David Jerusalem Museum, and from there to the alleyways of the Jewish Quarter and Mt. Zion.

Follow the Yehoram Gaon’s childhood memories from his grandfather’s home in the Old City, through the scenes of the sellers in the market, Ha-Yehudim St, and the kabbalistic yeshiva Beit El, where we will hear the secrets and the leadership that inspired his grandfather and the group of Kabbalists who surrounded him.
