Mahane Yehuda Market often referred to as "The Shuk" is a marketplace (originally open-air, but now partially covered) in Jerusalem first opened Late 19th century. Popular with locals and tourists alike, the market's more than 250 vendors sell fresh fruits and vegetables; baked goods; fish, meat and cheeses; nuts, seeds, and spices; wines and liquors; clothing and shoes; and housewares, textiles, and Judaica. In and around the market are falafel, shawarma, kibbeh, kebab, shashlik, kanafeh, baklava, halva, zalabiya and Jerusalem mixed grill stands, juice bars, cafes, and restaurants. The color and bustle of the marketplace is accentuated by vendors who call out their prices to passersby. On Thursdays and Fridays, the marketplace is filled with shoppers stocking up for Shabbat, until the Friday afternoon sounding of the bugle that signifies the market will close for the Sabbath. In recent years, the 'shuk' has emerged as another Jerusalemic nightlife center, with restaurants, bars and live music.

One thing you need to know about Machaneh Yehudah market, the peddlers are WAY more experience than you when it comes to retail, get ready to be scammed, to be lied to, to over pay for BS. You need to know in advance how much YOU are willing to pay for product X and what it’s worth for you. One of the guys there really believe I was going to pay over 1000 nis for a 2lb bag of tea mixture. They know the drill, don’t give up, don’t join the statistics, don’t go back home with a bitter taste of scam in your mouth, know when to say no, thank you! They make a living of people who don’t know how to say no. Other than that, most products are super generic and are sold in million other places in Israel in much more reasonable price, know the market! Once the market closes, the bars and restaurants open, Tap & Tail is one of the places I discovered on my last trip, definitely worth a visit. Amazing service, super friendly, great cocktails.

Huge place, everything you want for ur house you can find in here. The Machane Yehuda Market or shuk is the largest market in Jerusalem with over 250 vendors selling everything from fruit and vegetables to specialty foods, and clothing to Judaica. The market is the main traditional marketplace of Jerusalem and is an experience that must be part of any visit to Jerusalem, filled with fascinating sounds, sights, and smells. The Machane Yehuda Market is set between Aggripas and Jaffa Streets, with two main aisles and then many further small walkways once inside. It is a maze and myriad of sights, sounds, and smells, an intense sensory experience and memorable life experience! Just a ten-minute walk from the center of Jerusalem, the market is a fascinating place to stroll whether you are interested just in observing the magnificent sculpted displays of spices, mouthwatering array of foods, and stunning energy of the place, or if you want to get involved in real-market buying, negotiating and tasting! The market is open Sunday to Friday and closed on Shabbat (Saturday) and is particularly busy on Thursdays and Friday mornings with shoppers preparing for the Sabbath. On our Jerusalem Day Tour, you will get a taste for all the market has to offer. If you are particularly interested, it is possible to take a walking tour followed by a cookery class every week – read more about our Machane Yehuda Market tours.

Wow. I don't know what to say about this place that hasn't already been said. It's an experience for sure. I don't know where else there are places with such an incredible, buzzy atmosphere, but the market is almost always bustling. There is almost a little of everything here from fruit, to breads, spices, homegoods, shofars, candies, chocolates, cheeses, halva, fish and on and on. It can obviously get a little crowded, so if that's not your thing (like I sometimes get a bit claustrophobic in crowds like this) then maybe come very early in the morning. There is always a good vibe, and there's often someone playing music, and vendors yelling out that their stall is the best etc. It's also easy to get a little lost. Not lost in a bad way, but in the unsure-which-aisle-you've-already-been-down, way. It's so fun here and definitely worth the trip when you're nearby (or even if you're not nearby). I love it.
