Besides walking in the historic quarter, Acre-Akko has prepared many interesting activities for its guests. Do not miss an opportunity to walk on the fortress wall that surrounds the historic part of the city. This wall is a fantastic observation area with striking views of the city and roofs of historical buildings. Local children use the old wall as a tower to swim into the sea. Do not follow them because this activity is quite dangerous. There is a popular restaurant specializing in regional cuisine right on the wall. The open terrace of the establishment offers a fantastic view of the sea. The panorama is particularly attractive at sunset. Citadel's garden is a popular park located close to the citadel’s entrance. This is a fantastic place to relax on a hot day. The garden is not big but it has a wonderful landscaped design and diverse flora. Visitors can see giant trees and slender palm trees, and attractive fountains provide refreshing coolness on hot days. Big trees make almost the entire territory of the garden shadowy, so this is a great place to relax when the temperature is high.
