Migdal Tsedek National Park

Lovely and surprising new national park, only opened in 2021 so still relatively unknown although it's only a half hour from Tel Aviv!
The main fortress has a gift shop and courtyard with tables which is a nice spot for coffee. They show a 13 minute video with an overview of the history. Great views from the second floor. They're still reinforcing some of the stone walls so not every part is open to the public yet.
Outside the fortress are some beautiful paths to the ancient quarries and lime kilns, and winter pools with pretty plants and views.
Well worth a visit!
I was thrilled when I arrived to Migdal Tsedek today. We were expecting just an ancient bulding but what we experienced was a fascinating bit of history with beautifully designed films, walkways and breathtaking views. Lovely gift shop, gorgeous bathrooms in the ancient stone building. The bonus for me was the herd of charming goats and the bedouin goat herders who smilingly welcomed us into this lovely place. We will return with our visitors and family next week. Well done National Park System, I love this place!
