More about the place
Ein Riya, also called Ma'ayan Banaba since 2026, is a spring that flows year-round in the Wadi Riya valley in western Binyamin, near Neve Tzuf (Halamish) and right alongside Route 465. The spring water flows through a pipe under the road and fills a large, deep pool. Around the pool there is a large tree, shaded spots, and places to sit, surrounded by stone terraces and olive trees. The second name was given in memory of Col. Yitzhak Ben Basat z"l from Neve Tzuf, and a memorial stone in his honor was placed beside the pool.
