Discover with us the most amazing things to do in Haifa & Top Haifa Attractions.
This major seaport found on Israel's Mediterranean coastline is also the third most populous metropolitan area in the country. Set upon Mount Carmel, its scenery and terrain are simply stunning. That is why we recommend starting to explore the town at the top of the mountain.
Here you can take a walk along the Louis Promenade - located a few minutes away from numerous museums. It is one of the most beautiful places for walks and sightseeing in the whole of Haifa.
The Bahai Gardens are found on the top of Mount Carmel. This is the most visited and the most beautiful tourist attraction in the whole city. Its total area is 200,000 square meters and it is also the holiest site of the Bahai faith. The gardens extend almost one kilometer in length and house 19 splendid terraces full of colorful flowers, waterworks, and small sculptures. In the middle section, Bahai Gardens surround the gold-capped Shrine, built in 1953. In this Golden Dome temple, the remains of the Prophet Bab are kept.
The lower section of gardens opens to the German Colony - a beautifully restored cultural and tourist center. This small area was founded in the late 1860s and built by German Protestants. Ben Gurion Avenue, the main street in the German Colony, is lined with distinct, red-roofed trendy cafés, boutiques, and restaurants, where you can experience delicious Jewish and Arab cuisine.
Be sure not to miss the Hof HaCarmel area, which is perfect for lovers of sunbathing, swimming, and relaxing on deck chairs. Dado and Zamir Beaches are popular places for local visitors as well as for many tourists. In addition, those who love water sports will be pleased by surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing, and extreme watersports like parasailing. This all can be done off the coast.
Did you know that Haifa is the only city in Israel with a subway system? The Carmelit has six stations and a 1.8 km long track. It is believed to be the smallest subway system in the world.
