Hello and welcome to "Exploring Israel" series. I enjoy exploring my country by photowalking and photocycling³
Today I want to share with you my trip to the "Ha-Noflim Garden" in the city Petah Tikva.
Petah Tikva (Hebrew: פֶּתַח תִּקְוָה, IPA: [ˌpe.taχ ˈtik.va], lit. 'Opening of Hope'), also known as Em HaMoshavot (lit. 'Mother of the Moshavot'), is a city in the Central District of Israel, 10.6 km (6.6 mi) east of Tel Aviv. It was founded in 1878, mainly by Ultra-Orthodox Jews of the Old Yishuv, and became a permanent settlement in 1883 with the financial help of Baron Edmond de Rothschild.⁴
This garden was build in 2004 for the memory of the fallen townspeople in wars and defense operations.
There is a memorial statue in the middle of the garden to commemorate the fallen.
There are children's playground, benches, walking and cycling paths in the garden.
On the perimeter of the garden there is a mound with a path on top. An elevated point of view gives a beautiful perspective on the garden below.
A very beautiful garden that combines respect for the fallen and a place of relaxation.
Thank you for reading and your support!
