Emek Tzurim National Park

Emek Tzurim National Park (Hebrew: עמק צורים, lit.

It abuts the neighborhoods of Wadi al-Joz, At-Tur and Beit Orot, as well as the campus of Brigham Young University Jerusalem Center.

On its northern side, the Park borders Highway 1 and is overlooked by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem Mount Scopus campus.

[citation needed] In 2004—2017, the park housed the Temple Mount Sifting Project, where visitors participate in sifting soil from the Temple Mount in search of archaeological artifacts.

When this project moved to a different locale, the facility was renamed the Ancient Jerusalem Sifting Project and engages in sifting finds from other archaeological excavations in Jerusalem.
