We welcome you to come visit the underground Hasmonean Water Tunnel (the water tunnel is dry). A station directing you to the tour awaits you at the Haas Promenade at Armon HaNatziv. You will depart from there to the Hasmonean Water Tunnel, the ‘blue stone path’ beside you: 28 blue tiles are spread along the path, accompanied by colorful signs with spectacular paintings and original songs inspired by the location.

The path leads to a flashlight-lit walk in the underground depths below Jerusalem. City of David guides will await you along the path and explain this unique water system carved over 2000 years ago.
