Kibbutz Mishmar Hasharon, midway between Tel Aviv and Haifa, provides a special Israeli cultural experience. The Kibbutz “rose to fame” when Ehud Barak, who grew up on the Kibbutz, became Lt. General of the IDF and later the Prime Minister of Israel.
A visit to Mishmar Hasharon begins with a stroll through the pastoral pathways of the Kibbutz with kids roaming freely and people smiling as you pass them by. Along with intriguing kibbutz stories, Mishmar Hasharon also boasts an impressive Kibbutz museum, an old weapon stash from the British mandate era, and many more charming points of interest.
