Zichron Yaakov has its Midrahov (a combination of Midracha and Rehov, sidewalk and street, meaning a "walking street" for pedestrians only) and many restaurants and artist shops to enjoy on it.. We stopped and Zohara found a friend to exchange a few moments of relaxation with.

The memorial can be found at the town Center. It was established to immortalize the founders of Zichron Ya'akov that came to the region at 1882. Thier names are written on the ceramic surface. At the sight you can also find a small room where there are some rare pictures of the town at the first years after its establishment.

Zichron Ya'akov is built on many hills. At the past (when there were no cars yet) the streets of the town were built in a very tight shape and many small steps attached them. Some of the streets preserved beautifully until today and every tourists should take a look at them.

One of them most if not the most well known Israeli winery is Carmel. Their wines can be found in many places around the world and in Israel ofcurse.
Carmel winery invested $1.2 million to reconstruct their old cellars, build old-style tasting rooms, train guides and remodel the buildings originally built by Baron Edmond de Rothschild 115 years ago, has ensured that tours of their wineries will be at least as pleasing as those that one might take in France or California.
Thats one place to visit for sure when visiting in Zichron Ya'akov.
