Hebrew University Mount Scopus Campus Walk

Description
The Hebrew University’s Mount Scopus campus looks across the Old City, the Judean Desert, and the hills beyond Jerusalem. Its setting makes it a strong place to explore a side of the city that is often missed by first-time visitors. A walk can include the history of the university, its architecture, academic life, and the story of Mount Scopus itself. The area played an important role in the development of modern Jerusalem, from the early Zionist period through the years when the campus stood as an isolated Israeli enclave between 1948 and 1967. The campus reflects the ambition to build a centre of learning in Jerusalem, but also the reality that education, politics, war, separation, and reunion became part of its story.
