Halisa (Hebrew: חליסה; Arabic: الحليصة), also spelled Khalisa, is a neighborhood in the southeastern part of Haifa in northern Israel.
[1] Halisa lies at an altitude of less than 100 meters, about 2 kilometers southeast of the center of the lower town.
It is bordered to the south by the Nave Sha'anan district, to the west by Nachala, and to the north by the central part of the city around Kibbutz Galujot Street.
The Rushmiya Bridge, built in 1927 under the mayor Hassan Bey Shukri, leads over the Nahal Giborim wadi.
From an engineering point of view, the concrete structure represented one of the most modern buildings of this type in Mandatory Palestine at the time.
