Israeli Bar Mitzvah: Memory of a Lifetime
"A Bar Mitzvah is a journey. It is a path
from childhood into manhood," someone once said. This ceremony is a great
time to visit Israel. Its places, food and culture will make for a memorable
Bar Mitzvah.
Places To Educate
Israel offers unique places that will enrich a Bar Mitzvah. For example, north of historic Caesarea is Park Alona, where visitors can hike through the underground shaft constructed by the Romans to bring water to the city. Another important site is Masada, where visitors learn of the courage of the ancient Jews.
Another important place to visit is a community on the border. Kibbutz Malikiyeo near the Israeli-Lebanese border is one such community. A Bar Mitzvah candidate can meet the members from the kibbutz and witness how they live. He can meet soldiers who guard the border. Here he can also see the present-day challenges faced by the Jewish people. What an important experience for him as he prepares to become an adult.
Food And Culture to Experience
Israel is a melting pot of cultures. This has created a special environment visitors a will want to experience. Here are some foods to enrich this time:
Falafel-A mixture of chickpeas and fava beans, these small balls are served with salad.
Dried Fruit-The Jewish people have dried fruit since Bible times, and a trip through the open-air markets of modern Israel will reveal tables dried fruits. Strawberries, pineapples, and even lemons are available-and delicious!
Bagels-The bagels of Israel differ from the types in the U.S. They are oblong and eaten with olive oil and spices rather than cream cheese.
Kofta B'siniyah-Kofta B'siniyah is a favorite Israeli dish of meatballs made of lamb and beef.

First, the Western Wall should be on the list, and may be the best location for the young man's Bar Mitzvah in israel. Another inspiring stop would be the Temple Mount.
