Bnei Brak

From MaxTravelz

Bnei Brak, also spelled Bene Beraq, is an Israeli city. It lies in the Gush Dan district of which Tel Aviv is the largest city, between Ramat Gan and Petach Tikvah.

The city is a major focus of chareidi (ultra-orthodox) Jewish life, and this article is thus mainly focused on such travellers, since for other travellers, Bnei Brak is not an especially interesting destination.

Get in

• From Ben-Gurion Airport you are best off taking a taxi. It is possible to take buses, but there is no direct bus from the airport to Bnei Brak, so you would have to change buses in Tel Aviv or Ramat Gan. In that case, you could also take a train from the airport to Tel Aviv HaMerkaz (Central Station) and switch to a bus there.
• From Tel Aviv, take Dan city buses 54 or 66.
• From Jerusalem, take Egged/Dan intercity bus 400 from the Tachanah Merkazit (Central Bus Station), which leaves every 10 to 15 minutes, or take bus 402, which is faster and goes mainly through the chareidi (ultra-orthodox) neighborhoods of Jerusalem.

• Worth a very big recommendation: the bakery on the corner of Rechov Rabbi Akiva and Rechov Rashi, on the side towards Rechov Chazon Ish. Their chocolate croissants are fantastic. And so is everything else there. And it's cheap also.
