As a producer and provider of production services in Israel, I am always on the lookout for that one ultimate shoot that captures the breathtaking beauty of Jerusalem. No crew leaves Israel without filming in Jerusalem, and through all the years that I have been providing professional production services in Israel, no crew has left untouched by the city’s history, monumental architecture and eternal spirit.

I have compiled a list of locations across the city of Jerusalem, which offers you the best panoramic shots. I regard this list as unfinished – even after many years of producing and filming in Israel, there will always be a new spot with a good angle that offers great light and a stunning view.  

Kibbutz Ramat Rachel

At this Kibbutz you can find a lookout point with wonderful views of the city, stretching all the way to Bethlehem, the Herodian, and the Judean hills. When you reach the Kibbutz you make first a left and then a right. From the parking lot you continue to a small amphitheater, and at the edge you will find this enchanting hidden lookout.

The Haaz Promenade

This promenade is located in the Talpiot neighborhood, just ten minutes from the town center. It offers a great lookout point over the old city of Jerusalem, the Hinnom Valley, and the ruins of the City of David. The promenade is also known as Tayelet, and in fact there are three different promenades to discover. Film crews travel here often to catch a good shot in the afternoon sunlight.

The Y.M.C.A.

In the town center on King David street, across from the famous King David Hotel, you find the Y.M.C.A. hostel which offers a remarkable balcony with wonderful views of the old city, the new city and the Mount of Olives. When filming in Israel, film crews often look for symbols of the three religions and this is definitely a location to visit.

The Jerusalem Municipality Building

The building is located right in the center of town in Jaffa Street. If you take the elevator to the sixth floor you will find a wonderful panoramic balcony looking out to the east and the west of the city.

Mount Scopus

On your way to Mount Scopus, every point on the road around the Hebrew University provides you with a view of the old city and the Judean Desert. The lookouts also offer an almost birds eye view of the old city. This is the highest and closest point from where you can observe the old city: 830 meters above sea level.

Mount of Olives

Some say that the view at the Mount of Olives is the most beautiful in the world. The lookout terrace is on top of the mountain under the Seven Arches Hotel and above the large Jewish cemetery. During sunset and sunrise the city is painted in different shades of red, yellow, pink and orange and the Dome of the Rock sends rays of color all over the city. Shooting at the Mount of Olives when filming in Israel helps you to understand where the phrase ‘Jerusalem of Gold’ comes from. It is an unforgettable experience for thousands of filmmakers who travel to the Holy Land every year for filming in Israel.

The Tower of David

The Tower of David is located next to Jaffa Gate, the busiest and most well-known gate of the old city. The top balcony of the Tower of David provides a stunning 360° view of the old city and the new city. Filming at the Tower of David is a great location for film crews coming from overseas for filming in Israel. 

As mentioned above, this list is unfinished. Filming in Israel, and especially filming in Jerusalem, is a journey that takes you to surprisingly beautiful locations even after years. For anyone interested in further information about filming in Israel, I recommend our website http://www.biblicalproductions.com/index.htm with a comprehensive location guide to the best filming locations in Israel.

The New York Times conducted an interview with Ms. Janine Jaouni, Director of Business Solutions, an entrepreneurial e-commerce figure in the Middle East; the interview was part of a research and collaborative efforts by Microsoft, Google and eBay to explore markets in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) for introduction of new product lines and services. According to Ms. Jaouni, the e-commerce environment in the Middle East and North Africa faces several obstacles which deprived consumers in the region from commodities which [surprisingly] they can afford.

“The major issue is lack of a free market economy, companies are encouraged to export, yet customs and red-tape are a trade mark of most Arab economies, perhaps with the exception of the Emirates.” Ms. Jaouni continues: “the population of MENA stands at approximately a quarter-billion people, yet the economic boundaries have defeated the purpose when it comes to creating economies of scale.”

Microsoft, Google and eBay realize that MENA is an untapped consumer environment, yet the challenge remains on how to make such fragmented demands make economic sense, after all, the American business model is based on centralized operations of scale, particularly when it comes to the services sector, the challenge is the many borders, each with its own set and often contradictory rules of doing business.

Ms. Jaouni points out that her company Business Solutions has identified three challenges. The first challenge is lack of infrastructure for transportation and speedy delivery and reliable mail services; the second is lack of credit (less than 2% of the population of MENA has credit cards, 5% of those in her estimates have PayPal accounts), and the third is lack of trust – this is due to the fact that prosecuting someone in a different country is very difficult, particularly for consumer size transactions. Ms. Jaouni discounts the challenge of the centralized business model; “the web and e-commerce in particular lend themselves to a decentralized model,” she adds.

Then, how do you do e-business in the Middle East and North Africa, isn’t that what you do?, we asked.

Many young Arab entrepreneurs have realized that they can setup simple e-commerce (business-to-customer, B2C) sites catering to European and American customers. The nature of the products ranges from souvenirs to specialty or traditional items. These businesses, while profitable, require extensive marketing and dedication, something which is not easy to do for a part-time entrepreneur. Ms. Jaouni states: “Our approach and company philosophy is different; we help these and others setup a network of Business-to-Business (B2B), and from there B2C, thus creating a web of tiered network referred to as B2B2C.”

Business Solutions realized the potential of B2B marketing and produced its first EXPO package in 2003. This B2B package is designed for export oriented markets and includes categorized listings of businesses, each business with online catalogs, inquiry baskets, PDF brochures and utilities to export spreadsheets for large scale marketing campaigns. EXPO is most suitable for markets with specialized product sectors, like in Jordan, Palestine, Iraq, Egypt, Syria and Morocco. The platform has significantly contributed to exports of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, marble and stone, leather products, textiles and furniture.

Based on the success of EXPO, the company launched the Arab Travel Network (ATN) in 2005. ATN is a site totally administered by travel agents, tour operators and companies which provide related travel and tourism services. For businesses, it functions as a B2B platform creating a travel and tourism marketplace in an area long ignored by Expedia, Travelocity and Orbitz. Tour operators are now capable of organizing tours and selling packages to travel agents world-wide. Travel agents in turn offer travel packages to customers, also online, a very successful B2B2C model. The major tourism sectors benefited by this package are in Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Lebanon, Palestine and Jordan. Ms. Jaouni states that Business Solutions has also experimented with hotel reservations and other services related to Hajj and Omra in Saudi Arabia, and is currently looking for local partnership and representation. The Emirates market also has great potential, but requires a unique model which Business Solutions is looking into.

The latest release by Business Solutions is ArabCityUSA.com which is a super-portal targeting the Arab Community in North America. The planned release of ArabCityUSA.com was postponed by six months in order to re-design the site to make full use of the latest AJAX technology. This technology enables vendors and users alike to get results effectively without having to “mine” for information. The site is focused on travel services with airfares and packed offers, and online airfare quotes system to many airports in Arab countries and world-wide destinations. The portal has a comprehensive list of restaurants offering Middle Eastern and traditional Arabic (particularly Lebanese and Moroccan) cuisine, where each restaurant self publishes specialties and menus which appear in a compiled easy to browse pages. The site also offers a comprehensive business directory with categorized listings and online catalogs for products and services. In addition to AJAX, the site utilizes US zip codes to calculate distance to such businesses and sorts results by distance. The site has a social platform which offers a meeting place similar to MySpace.com; among the innovative features is Skype.com online status for members and statistics about who is online using IP-to-Country detection technology. Ms. Jaouni adds that the target Arab communities in the US are primarily in Paterson and Jersey City in New Jersey, New York City, Boston, Baltimore, Washington DC, Houston, Dearborn, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles and San Francisco. All services offered through ArabCityUSA.com are free, except for the advertisements, preferred and featured listings.

The future of e-business in the MENA region remains promising, evident by the high number of internet users. “Somehow we need to turn browsing time into a shopping experience”, Ms. Jaouni comments, “I see people taking shopping trips to London, Paris and New York; we need to make the same products available here for the middle-class, it is all products they can afford.”

If you are going to visit in Israel you should know how to plan your tour in Israel, you need to learn some information about Israel before your visit there in order to make a plan for your travel, here is a few tips that can help you with this.

• About Israel travel
  Israel is small country and a lot of tourists come to Israel in every day, but mostly in the summer days, the summer is the best season to visit in the middle east and to enjoy the hot sun in the beach of Tel-aviv or to see the amazing places in the old city of Jerusalem, the dead sea is also a very good place to visit in and also the city in the end of Israel, Eilat, the most southern city of Israel.

• The Cities:
  Jerusalem and Tel-aviv are the most visited cities for tourists who travel to Israel, israel has a few big cities like Beer-Sheba, Haifa and Rishon Le-Zion, Tel-Aviv is the central city of the central area of israel, Jerusalem is the Capital city, Tel Aviv located in the cost of the Mediterranean Sea and so it is a good place for tourist to visit and enjoy the sun and the water on the beaches in Tel-Aviv, Tel-Aviv has a few beaches and one of the most visited is the “Jerusalem Beach”, also a good nightlife places can be found in Tel-Aviv, Tel-Aviv is a city where you can find places open all night long and people enjoy to visit pubs and night clubs in Tel-Aviv, Jerusalem the capital is also a good tourist city to visit in and has a big population of tourists, the night life is good and you can find a lot of pubs and dance bars in Jerusalem central area, but the most interesting part of the city is the old city where you can find places like the western wall and the Church of the Resurrection, Tiberias is a good city to visit is you are visiting the northern area of Israel, Eilat is the best tourist attraction in the southern district of israel, the central city in the southern district is Beersheba and the capital of the northern district is Haifa, those are basically the main cities in Israel.

• Moving from city to another:
  Traveling to Israel is easy because of the country size, it is easy to get from one place to another in a short period of time, for example, a bus ride from Jerusalem to Tel-aviv will be around the 45 minutes, and it is also cheap if you use the bus transportation, there are a few ways to travel in Israel with public transportation, the Israel bus transport is the most easy one, but Israel transport is easy with train or taxi.

All about Israel travel deals

Airport selection will influence your decision on which airline carrier to use. Airlines will often change their flight itineraries and departure airports based on current economics and passenger headcounts.  It is advisable to check with the airline or your travel agent about availability if you need to book your travel through a specific airport.

For any non-stop flight from the UK to Israel, the duration of a flight is approximately 5-6 hours.  For such a long flight, you may want to consider upgrading from Coach to Business Class or even First Class to increase your level of comfort. The upgraded classes offer more leg and seat room plus other additional amenities.

If your travel dates are somewhat flexible, many of the airlines and travel websites offer an option for you to have notices emailed to you when a special Israel travel deal is being offered. The peak travel season for Israel is from May to September, so you can expect to see the highest ticket prices during these months. And therefore, flight prices are typically reduced during the off-season.

When on a business trip to Israel, you may not have the luxury of altering your travel dates to get the best ticket price. However, consider changing your departure airport instead. Sometimes, airlines will offer discounts that are based on the departing airport to increase passenger headcount from that facility.

If you are a passport holder from a country that does not require an entry visa for Israel, you may be able to take advantage of last-minute deals. Airlines prefer to have the flights take off with a person in every seat, so if the flight isn’t full within 24 hours of departure, they will offer irresistible deals in order to sell those extra seats. This is a great strategy for those who can travel on a moment’s notice.

If you have dietary restrictions requiring kosher meals, then one of the Israeli-based airlines may be your best choice. It is important to note that most major airline carriers can provide kosher alternatives with advance notice, but with an Israeli airline, no advanced requests are necessary.

Some experiences travellers recommend that you wait to book your flights until the last minute.  Others will advise you to book as early as possible to get the seat you want.  Many recommend searching online at any travel site, such as Travelocity, Expedia or Priceline. And others look to the traditional travel agent or the airlines themselves. Each method has its pros and its cons. The best option is typically comparing the prices from several different sources and choosing the best one.

Planning a trip to Egypt? If so, it will be of great benefit to read a simple and basic Egypt travel guide before proceeding to make any plans or tour arrangements. Why? Because, like any country, Egypt has its “must see” locations, its visitor requirements and some basic information that is always good to know.

For example, anyone making a visit to Egypt should consider taking the time to tour some of the following popular destinations:

·         The Pyramids of Giza

·         The Egyptian Museum in Cairo

·         Abu Simbel

·         Luxor and Karnak temple complexes

·         The Valley of the Kings

·         Alexandria

·         The “Red Sea Riviera”

·         The Western Desert and Oases

·         Historical areas of the Sinai Peninsula

Additionally, many visitors plan a Nile River cruise of some kind or another and make a point of visiting the larger markets in Cairo, including the famous Khan al-Khalili. Only by reading through a fairly comprehensive Egypt travel guide will a visitor understand the entire area they intend to tour, and be able to plan the best and most enjoyable visit.

Before planning a visit to the country however, a good Egypt travel guide will make a tourist aware of the kinds of documentation and even medical issues they must also be aware of. For example, visas and passports are mandatory for every individual who seeks to enter Egypt, and residents of some nations have far less required of them in order to gain a visa. In fact, there are many people who are able to simply complete their visa paperwork on the plane in which they are travelling to Egypt. A thorough Egypt travel guide will itemize each nation and what its citizens will require in order to enter the country.

There are also some cultural issues that a good Egypt travel guide will discuss, and this includes the proper dress for both men and women as well as standards of behavior that will be required for most visitors. Generally such topics are focused on modesty and respect for long-standing social traditions. For example, alcoholic beverages are not commonly served, and are in fact “taboo” for many practitioners of Islam.

Additionally, a good Egypt travel guide must address subjects such as transportation, “baksheesh” which is the customary tipping of all service providers, and even safety.

Egypt is a fascinating, diverse and remarkable land, and a high quality Egypt travel guide is a great tool in planning an enjoyable visit to this popular country.

Israel holds the fascination of every tourist, whether he comes to Israel as a pilgrim, art lover, or as a person interested in history.

There is a lot to Israel travel beyond Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. You could visit Sea of Galilee, Israel’s largest fresh water lake; the Golan Heights, the flat mountainous terrain, which is one of Israel’s most beautiful pieces of countryside; or go kayaking on the Jordan river in summer. You’ll not want to miss out on the beautiful waterfalls and nature trails of the Banias one of Israel’s main water supply. A visit to Glogotha in Jerusalem, the place where Jesus was crucified and Nazareth the birthplace of Jesus will make your Israel travel one of the most spiritual trips you will ever have in your entire life.

Drive through the coast of Dead sea is a must. The breathtaking view of the Judean desert is sure to make your trip worthy. Dead Sea has salt concentrated water, so you can swim and float effortlessly. A healing mud treatment at the Dead Sea resort is worth trying. Travel to Metzada (Masada), a mountain top fortress considered as one of the greatest symbols of Israel’s ancient kingdom and enjoy the wonders of Israel to the fullest.

Summer time at Israel can be complete fun with beautiful and sunny beaches in Tel-Aviv, Haifa, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Natanya, or any other Israeli city next to the Mediterranean Sea. Finally, a trip to Israel is never complete without tasting the signature Israeli food, such as the Hummus and the Falafel.

If you’re planning a trip to Israel, then you need not worry about working out each detail of your vacation. PerilloTours

The Middle East produces some of the world’s most delicate snacks and delicious flavours. These are countries ripe with traditional cooking methods where eating a meal is as much about the friends you share it with as the food you eat. In Syria you can explore the local Souqs (undercover markets) where every nook and cranny is filled with fragrant herbs and rich spices. Turkish meals often include a helping of warm fresh bread alongside soups cooked in pots that need to be cracked open after cooking. In Jordan share meze with friends. Popular meze dishes include Baba Ghanoush – mashed eggplant (aubergine) and minced lamb mixed with mint and spices. In Israel the budget-conscious backpacker can indulge in chicken kebabs, bagels, and falafels with hummus in warm pitas. If this has wet your appetite then read on for a pick of the tastiest Middle Eastern dishes and beverages.

If you like it strong and dark then Turkish coffee is for you. It is bitter, taken without milk and served in an espresso sized cup.

Chick pea lovers unite! The Middle East is full of creamy hummus, chick pea stews and deep fried falafels.

Order a kebab like no other kebab you’ve ordered before. Choose from tender cuts of lamb, chicken or beef with salad, hummus and olives, topped with chilli and garlic sauce.

Munch on olives of every colour, size and flavour.

Buy Turkish Delight in bulk in, you guessed it, Turkey. These come in flavours ranging from yellow rose to pistachio. Once sampled never forgotten.
