This residential street in the upper Hadar area, off
of Balfour Street, is located just a short climb up the
hill from the Israel National Museum of Science. It
seems like an unlikely spot for what over the last year
or two has turned into an 'in' area of sorts.
Interspersed between the apartment buildings is an
assortment of shops that include second hand items,
antiques, a claywork gallery and more.
Massada St. is also home to three small cafes that
offer coffee and light fare. The cafes (whose signs are
only in Hebrew), are located at # 18, 21 and 22 and are
open from 9-11AM to 1-2 AM (hours seem to be somewhat
flexible).
There is a Carmeilt (subway stop) across from # 38. A
map of the street that lists the various shops is
available for free at some of the shops (just
ask).
