Timing and Precautions
Jaffa Street, Ben-Yehuda Street, and Machaneh Yehuda are ghostly quiet from Friday afternoon until Saturday night because of the Jewish Sabbath. Morning through midday Friday is the most bustling, as Jerusalemites meet friends for coffee or lunch, and do their weekend shopping.
