UPDATED -- This year's FREE attractions list is different from last year's, so please help spread the word ! This post is the NEW, UPDATED LIST! (you can find the original Hebrew list here)
Most sites will offer free admission on Chol Hamoed from April 1-5. Always verify opening hours before you go!
Here's the list of MORE free attractions for Pesach 2018, sponsored by Bank HaPoalim. I have linked to websites in English, whenever possible. I hope you find this list helpful, and that you get to have some super-frugal fun over Pesach!
You can call *2410 for information about the Bank HaPoalim sponsored attractions.
Other free attractions can be found in my other posts about this topic (Part 1 - Heritage Sites - Mapa U'Matza, Part 2 - Even BaGalil). I'll be adding more posts as more info becomes available!
*Please note that I put a lot of effort into this post, tracking down websites in English for your convenience. I know the Bank Hapoalim info is available to the public in Hebrew, but this blog post has added benefits for the English speaking community. Because it was so much work, I request that if you plan to share this information, you link back to my site. Thank you for this common courtesy.*
Please leave a comment with your favorite place to visit (from this list)!
