A must for every tourist that comes to Israel Mini Israel in Latrun is the “Showcase of Israel.” Exhibited in it are hundreds of amazingly exact models, at a scale of 1:25, of the most important architectural, historic, archeological, religious and social sites as well as buildings of importance to all religions and cultures inhabiting the country. The 25,000 miniature “Israeli” residents in the models are all… 7cm in height!! Since its opening in 2002, Mini Israel has turned into one of the most popular tourist attractions, primarily due to its ideal location , and also because Israeli tourists of all ages, denominations and communities find their most beloved and cherished sites and buildings presented “at eye level.” Exhibits are periodically updated and renewed, therefore each visit ensures discovering new corners, sites, scenes and attractions which were not there before. Mini Israel, the Israeli city of miniatures, is located in the Latrun region, near the Armored Corps Memorial and the Trappist Monastery. The exhibit extends over an area of about 35,000 square meters (7.5 Acres) and offers its guests: A Visitors’ Center with a food court, a souvenir shop, a miniature tree (bonsai) nursery and a meeting hall where a movie on the creation of the site is screened. We wish you a visit filled with complete enjoyment. http://www.minisrael.co.il/home_en.html info@minisrael.co.il Opening Hours: Sunday-Thursday 10:00-18:00 Friday 10:00-14:00 Saturday 10:00-18:00 Directions: From Jerusalem to Mini Israel: Direct routes to "Kahativa 7 Junction" , about 1 k"m walk from the park.
