Bet Hatfutzot: The Diaspora Museum
The Diaspora Museum is one of those hidden gems.
The Diaspora Museum was the idea of Dr. Nahum Goldmann, founder and first president of the World Jewish Congress. Located in the campus of Tel Aviv University, its the kind of place you go with low expectations, and end up running out of time!
The museum is huge, and whilst many of the displays are a bit dated, (the facts havent changed), it is undergoing refurbishment.
The museum runs through the 2,500 year history of the Jewish diaspora, sending you around the world to the Jewish communities which established and grew uniquely.
With a multimedia and family history library, you can even trace back your own roots here.
