January 7, 2019 - From the official Machaneh Yehuda Market website here is a bit of information for travelers: "The Western Wall, the Tower of David and the Machane Yehuda market are some of Jerusalem’s world-famous icons The Western Wall and the Tower of David represent the religious, historical aspects of Jerusalem, the place from which the Jewish people developed. The Machane Yehuda Market, however, represents the heart of Jerusalem, nowadays and in the foreseeable future. In a unique way, Machane Yehuda integrates the old and the new. A bustling marketplace and a neighborhood, it intertwines food, drinks, shopping, bars and restaurants. Despite being a touristic destination, the market has maintained its most important characteristic: it remains authentic – as can be sensed by all the flavors and aromas, seen in its colorfulness and heard in the traders' interaction with the crowds.
It is not for no good reason that the Machane Yehuda Market is widely recognized as a symbol of Jerusalem. After all, Jerusalemites see it as a place that represents, and reflects their unique identity in the broader Israeli social context. is the market is nicknamed "MachneYuda," similarly to the name of one of the finest Israeli restaurants that is located in the market. But this name has something inexpressible to language; it is beyond words, because it reminds Jerusalemites of themselves, their childhoods, resonating the Jerusalem they so deeply love. Even though Jerusalem today has many shopping and entertainment centers, some are located within several hotels in Jerusalem, there remains something unique about the Machane Yehuda Market that continues to attract people – even those without a shopping list. Perhaps the Machne Yehuda Market simply enables us to be who we are – lovers of life and the city of Jerusalem.
We have established this site, first and foremost, to pay our respects to this place, and to the traders – the people who live and work in the market, those who have transformed Machane Yehuda into the brand it has come to be. The Machane Yehuda market is a symbol, and we believe that this symbol deserves an honest and loyal representation online.
The second reason for setting up this website is to provide both Israeli and international visitors all the necessary information about this unique site, accurately demonstrating just how inspiring and welcoming it can be. We invite you to surf the website, losing yourself to all the market’s colors, scents and sounds. We hope this experience will inspire you to visit the marketand love it, at least as much as we do. We invite you to take a look at our variety of Israeli Food Tours.
Have an enjoyable visit.

Thursday....had to go to Belfast and if you have perused here at all, you know this for me is a photographic adventure, but not today. I felt like pooh, fluey, and my wee cam surfaced only for a few shots.
I had an appointment at Musgrave for a joint injection and spent a very relaxing 4 hours there (mean that, i had a great book with me) waiting for a jab that never happened.
Doc read my x-rays,told me there was nothing between hip bone and socket to inject anything into so a rubber hip thingy is now on the cards within the next 6 months. Guessed that was coming so i don't entirely mind but...
....got home and was hit with a sinusey infection like i was levelled! PLEURGH! If someone had said, 'fancy euthenasia?', i would have said 'make it a double!' Today is the first day i have felt human in any way since Wednesday and i feel a bit wobbly yet. No photo rambles this weekend.....and the sunset last night was spectacular on the mountains behind. I looked out the bedroom window and purely yearned.
Sampling speleothem from Tjuv-Ante's Cave, Storrisberget's Nature Reserve, Västerbotten, northern Sweden, spring 2011 (with permission from Länsstyrelsen), for joint project with Juan Ramón Vidal Romanà at the University of A Coruña, Spain; Rabbe Sjöberg, Umeå, and researchers at the Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, NordCEE at the Syddansk University, and the University of Copenhagen.
I finished the samples for the Fat Quarterly Sewing Retreat Sample Swap. This sneak peek is for those of my fellow swappers who don't want to know the details. If YOU want to know, I blogged about it here:
