Independence Hall and Palmach museum
The imdepemdence hall is where Ben gurion declared Israel a state on Friday may 14, 1948 at 3pm. It was actually the jome of dissengoff who donated it
To tel aviv after his wides passing with the request that it be maintained as an art museum. It had been closed for renovations until recently and the most interesting part of this is that the renovation uncovered a wall that remained from the original dissengoff home.
This is a brief tour. It doesn't require more than 1/2 hr. but it's less interesting for kids generally.
The Palmach museum is great especially for kids 12 and up id say bc the members of the palmach were actually in their young teens when they began their resistance and missions
Walking through a recreation of the experience over the years approximately 1943-48. Sounds smells and touch of the period and experience. Some sitting but films usually brief none longer than 15 mins.
It adds greatly to the experience that it is run completely by young members of the army in uniform.
