More about the place
Independence Park, officially named Harry Wilf Park, is the second-largest urban park in Jerusalem, right in the city center between King George Street and Agron and Hillel streets. In the 1990s it was redesigned: at its center is an undulating grassy expanse, with water canals leading down from it toward the Mamilla Pool, an ancient water reservoir. Local workers and shoppers come here to relax and stroll.
