עין יעל - גן ארכאולוגי למלאכה, תרבות וטבע

Welcome

Ein Yael

Archaeological Garden for Crafts, Culture and Nature

Ein Yael is a unique natural gem in Jerusalem’s landscape, where a flowing spring meets ancient agricultural terraces, thriving wild vegetation, rare archaeological mosaics, and the impressive remains of a Roman villa and its bathhouses.

For thousands of years, this natural living eco-system has flourished alongside the city. Today, Ein Yael continues this legacy as a vibrant space for culture, art, therapy and nature education. Here, we preserve ancient technologies, pass on traditional agricultural heritage, and create lasting connections between past and present – a living gift to Jerusalem and its surroundings.

Visits and activities at Ein Yael are for groups and by advance reservation only.

We warmly welcome the general public and individuals during our festivals and open days.

"Highly recommend the agricultural holiday festivals at Ein Yael - a well-made Israeli experience - invested and meaningful for the whole family. So happy there's still a place that truly celebrates the harvest on Shavuot and the olive harvest on Hanukkah. We'll continue to visit."

"There's no other place in the country that recreates traditional crafts so well and conveys them so beautifully to children. We're interested in the field and were happy to discover a place that respects the material and the way things are done - a rare experience nowadays."

"As a family that loves to hike and create - the Artistic Creation Festival during Pessach was our most beautiful spring. The artists and instructors beautifully connected between the nature outside and the nature within, the creations were beautiful and well-crafted, and most importantly - we had an excellent family experience with kudos from the kids."

"Ein Yael is at the top of our visiting list for 4th-5th grades. The farm, located so close to Jerusalem and providing the atmosphere of an ancient agricultural farm, is our opportunity to show students how things aren't taken for granted and how life close to nature was simple and beneficial. Highly recommended for all school students."
