Neot Kedumim

VALENTINES DAY. Field trip + Dance party.
Muhlestein Love Bus

We went to Neot Kedumim that is a park designed by a man who raised all of the money through non-profit organizations. Palestinians and Jews have come together and created this place where everything is artificial (the planting)- so trees, flowers, gardens, stations, etc.
