We had a great time at the Safed Puzzle Room! It was fun, challenging, and just the right amount of clues to tackle the puzzles. I also appreciated that some clues were harder than others, allowing everyone to use their strengths accordingly. It's located within very short walking distance of many food establishments, making it the perfect activity for the end of the day (or a rainy one, too!). You could go before or after supper (as we did), when most other entertainment options are closed, and then end your day on a wonderful high!

I didn't know a lot about glassblowing before coming here, but thought that it would be fascinating to learn more about it, especially in a place that knows so much about it and makes such beautiful glasswork. They walked us through the process and showed us how to make different pieces of glass art, and the final artwork is so breathtakingly beautiful that I was afraid to touch anything.
5. The Old City of Safed

The old city of Safed should be seen on a damp winter’s day with mist swirling around the tiny stone houses, or an hour before sunset on a sunny day when the light is golden. Home of the Kabbalah in the sixteenth century, it is still home to lots of cranks and saints. One of the four holy cities of the Holy Land, while Tiberias on the lake is water, Hebron tomb of the patriarchs is earth, Jerusalem which was burned is fire, Safed is air, the spirit. Some of the houses are crumbling away, others have been renewed. Just wander and look. And talk to people .
