Story through
Mintz Street in Netanya holds a great surprise for its visitors: a huge Ficus Sycomorus tree estimated to be between 600 and 1,200 years old! The height of this sycamore tree is 8 meters, the diameter of its top is 25 meters and the diameter of its trunk is 5 meters. This beautiful sycamore tree is situated within a well-kept municipal garden and at its feet is found a large painting of this same sycamore tree from 1873. They say that Moses and Judith Montefiore rested under its shade and that even the soldiers of Napoleon have done so many years before that on their way to Acre. Netanya’s ancient sycamore tree is located on Mintz Street, opposite of house number 8, near the MDA.

A covered market always makes one wonder as to its authenticity, but there is no doubt that the roof which covers the Netanya Market makes the experience of buying and walking around it more pleasant, especially on rainy or stormy days, or when the sun is too strong. The Netanya Market opened in 1957 by Jewish immigrants from North Africa and today it offers like any self-respecting market fruits, vegetables and meat, all kinds of customers and especially a pleasant and free atmosphere. Beyond these, the Netanya Market includes quite a few stands and stores that offer spices, as well as lovely delis that specialize in everything which the Netanya Market costumers could want: North African, Russian or French delicatessen. In the Netanya Market one can also find several restaurants, some of which offer Tripolitan food. The center of the Netanya Market is located on Shoham Street. The Netanya Market is open on Sundays – Thursdays from the morning and until the afternoon and on Fridays until midday.
