Green Gallery: a Saturday's short trip




It was an excellent idea to walk in a green space on a sunny and warm day like this Saturday! And I did it with my friends and their teenage son, who was bored with our trip in contrast to many kids and dogs which were enjoyed in the park.
 
 
 
 
 

Where is it? This park is a half of Arsuf Kedem 

Arsuf Kedem is located 17 kilometers north of Tel Aviv, near Hertzelia. Arsuf Kedem was established in 1935 north of the ancient city and fortress – Apollonia (the archeological site: "Tel Arshaf") situated on a cliff above the Mediterranean Sea. The farmers who settled in Arsuf Kedem toiled their land growing fruit and vegetables fields.
Modern Arsuf is a small Settlement, of private homes north of Arsuf Kedem, established in 1996.
An area of 350 acres around Arsuf Kedem, between the ancient city and the modern village was declared a Nature Reserve in 2003.
The sons of the pioneers of Arsuf Kedem, are making this beautiful area a place of landscaping, ecological gardening and nature art.

The Green Gallery includes an ecological Garden in memory of Dina Manheim (1951-2006).
The garden is a private collection of trees of 100 kinds, and is a part of a wide area of open landscape. About 40 kinds of fruit trees provide a rich environment for people and birds all around the year.
