Timeline
05:51
Walk into The Yarqon Park before the sun breaks the horizon. The river is quiet, and the air is cool. Find a spot on the south bank with a clear view to the east and northeast, where the sky will first turn pink.
06:41
Watch the sunrise. The sun rises in the east, but the golden light that bathes the park in warm tones begins around 16:22. For the true sunrise moment, look east as the sky brightens.
07:26
Walk to Zorik, just 6 minutes from the park. It opens at 06:00, so you can arrive right as the morning rush begins. Grab a strong coffee or a light breakfast to keep you going.
08:26
End your morning at WE ARE MAKERS. It opens at 10:00, giving you time to rest or explore the city in between. If you have energy, join a two-hour mosaic or concrete casting session.
Local tip
The park is large. Stick to the south bank for the best views of the sunrise and the river flow.
