Accessibility in Urban Areas

Israel is known for its large cities such as Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and more.

Accessibility Israel aims to facilitate the big cities crowded main streets and enable people in wheelchair and other mobility-limited people to visit the important sites of the cities while preserving the topographic and historical structure of the city.

Israel understands the importance of accessibility in urban areas to people with disabilities and provides an equal service to all. Israel works to make the urban cities accessible and provide easy-to-use services and information for people with disabilities.

Israel's Ministry of Tourism promotes accessible tourism and makes a lot of efforts to ensure that tourism in Israel is accessible, nondiscriminatory, inclusive, and suitable for people with disabilities and the elderly. The Ministry is sparing no efforts and is working on achieving this goal through various channels, including legislation, and even designated an employee to coordinate these efforts and advance this important subject.
