as you all probably know, the temple mount sifting project is over at the Tzurim Valley National Park, and i was told i could take a bus over to the hebrew university on mt. scopus, where there is a 10-15 minute walk along mazar st, to get to the tzurim valley (and them temple mount salvage operation).

i'm going to be staying at palm hostel, directly across from damascus gate. are there buses near? is it far to walk? i posted this question before, but several years ago.

i appreciate any kind of help.

I do not definitely know the answer to your question, but the sifing sight is run by Ir David Call them at *6033 that is Star 6033 from any Israeli phone and I am sure they will be able to answer your questions. (The bus to Hebrew U, Mt. Scopus used to go not far from the Damascus Gate but i haven't rode that bus in years and can't verify its current route.) BTW the sifiting area is really special and it is neat The day I was there someone found a gold coin that they believe comes from the Time of the first Temple.

yes, i have the details about the sifting site.

i was just wondering if there were buses near that area.
i'll ask around, i'm sure the hostel where i'm staying can help out.

take care
