Web site promotes Israel locations for b’nai mitzvah

Everything you ever wanted to know about holding a child’s bar or bat mitzvah in Jerusalem — and didn’t know what or whom to ask — is now covered in a newly created Web site: www.bar-mitzvah.org.il.

The site is divided into sections including “Your Celebration,” “Find a Package,” and “Jerusalem Hotels”. Parents have the option of considering a selection of more than a dozen locations for the event — from the more traditional Western Wall, Southern Wall and Masada, to a variety of locations in and around the capital.

The site provides detailed information on how to plan every aspect of the vacation in Israel — including arrangements for the ceremony as well as touring and activity ideas throughout Israel. It also provides lists and links to travel agents and tour operators that organize both customized and group b’nai mitzvah arrangements.

The site is in English, with sub-sites in French and Hebrew, and is a joint venture of the Israel Ministry of Tourism, the Municipality of Jerusalem’s Tourism Authority and the Jerusalem Hotel Association.
