Photos of Park Shamir in Ma’ale Adumim – Choel Hamoed Pesach

Hi Everyone!

Today, I visited Park Shamir which is located at the new main
entrance to Ma’ale Adumim. Several new attractions were
opened for Choel Hamoed Pesach including paddle boats and
canoeing on the lake, pedal go-karts, a rope park and an inflatable
obstacle course. There is plenty of grass for picnics and the “Cafit”
restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating.
I read in the newspapers that additional attractions will be added
soon and a meat restaurant will be opened.

No, I do not work for the city. I just think the park is very nice.

Kol Hakavod to Mayor Benny Kashriel, the city staff and the
Zikit company for creating a fun place for the whole family.

I took photos and posted them online at:
http://www.jr.co.il/ma/pic/2014/ma949.htm

Enjoy!

Moadim L’Simcha and
Shabbat Shalom,
Jacob
