Located about 15 minutes by foot from Jerusalem. Some recognize Lifta as the biblical town of Mei Naftoach. Most of the houses in Lifta were built during the Ottoman Era. Archeological findings suggest that it was first inhabited almost 4,000 years ago. The highlight of the area is the magical Lifta spring, one of the largest in the Jerusalem mountains, with its natural picturesque swimming pool. At this time, Lifta’s future is an Israel Land Administration’s issue, including plans for the construction of a luxury neighborhood on the village's ruins, which will include residential villas, a hotel, and a shopping mall, while preserving the authentic-historical atmosphere and nature.
