There are corners of Jerusalem that never seek attention. They wait quietly, steady in their rhythm, for someone to slow their pace. Bloomfield Garden is one of them. Between its tall trees and the slope towards Liberty Bell Park, the Lion Fountain stands as a calm witness to seasonal light – summer that opens in bright tones, winter that gently dims them.
In summer, the fountain wakes up. Children splash one another, late-afternoon sun glints across the stone, and the path circling the basin fills with movement. There is an ease to the season, a small sense of celebration carrying through the air.
When Is the Best Time to Visit the Lion Fountain in Bloomfield Garden?
When winter settles in, everything shifts. The water darkens, shadows stretch wider across the benches, and a breeze rising from Liberty Bell Park brings the scent of wet earth. The paths slow, details sharpen, and a familiar corner of Jerusalem reveals itself in a new light. Same fountain – two seasons repainting it each time you return.
