Shabbas in Tzfat! Our hotel was in the hub of the Old City, a stone's throw away from the wide variety of eclectic shuls.

Spending Shabbos in Tzfat was absolutely incredible! It was an extremely spiritual experience. I felt like I was home. -Tamar Guterson
Tzfat itself is such an incredible place, you can’t be there without feeling its beautiful, intense aura. The sound cave, the shuls on Friday night, and the people - everything just makes you feel like you’re being embraced in a warm hug of spirituality. -Etti Krinsky
Tzfat was a super spiritual and uplifting experience. -Tzipporah Oster
Tzfat is an all time favorite of mine. It’s far away from everything and Yerushalayim, yet I feel a G-dly presence there like mucho. -Esti Vogel
Painting by Chaya Saacks, Inspired by Tzfat
The secret tourist attraction of Tzfat is an ancient water cistern that locals and teenagers call the "sound cave." The circular shape of the cave creates the most beautiful acoustics, and we headed there after the meal to sing together.
This day taught me to go about life and find the unexpected. I found myself in this cave in Tzfat and ended up listening to most amazing guitarist I’d ever heard. -Esti Vogel (speaking of another trip there after Shabbos)
The sound cave was like nothing I’ve experienced before. The acoustics were amazing, and we had such a nice time! -Shaindel Freedman
Sound Cave Session - For Women Only (Recorded after Shabbos)
The music continued even after Shabbos with a beautiful musical Havdalah at Ascent and then a Motzei Shabbos sound workshop with Rabbi Amram Moyal.
Havdalah at Ascent was a lot of fun with all the music and the dancing!

Musical Havdalah
It was really interesting to see the different musical cultures and to experience them in the sound workshop. Afterwards, we had a really cool dance party. He was a really good DJ; I’ve never had that much fun with Jewish music before.
