Jaffa Express: A New VR Attraction

Talma Gotteiner

Hi there!

I'm happy to share with you a new virtual reality family attraction that was launched this week in Jaffa . Many guests, including media people, came to experience a journey through time, in the heart of the Old City.

9 Beit HaEshel St., Jaffa. The attraction is in a complex called Space No. 9 on Floor (-1).

The new tourist attraction is a journey through time in the ancient Jaffa Express train using virtual reality head gear and multi-sensory chairs.

The passengers, arrive at the train station, where they are invited to enter the carefully designed carriage, put on the VR glasses and fasten their seat-belts. The advanced chairs then embark on a 360-degree journey, full of sights and experiences.

The Jaffa Express station is located at Beit Eshel 9, an impressive period building that was preserved and restored and in which a variety of galleries and cafes were opened, and on the lower floor (-1), the railway complex.

The duration of the journey is about 13 minutes, and is recommended for inclusion in any tour of the city. The attraction provides a nice indoors respite that is suitable for children aged 4 and up.
