Shaul Garden, Urban garden in Ramat Gan, Israel
Shaul Garden is a green space in Ramat Gan with walking paths, seating areas, and open sections of grass for strolling and sitting. The layout includes multiple entry points and connects through pedestrian pathways to surrounding areas.
The garden was founded in 1938 and originally called Presidents Garden before being renamed in 1943. The new name honors poet Shaul Tchernichovsky and his literary legacy.
The garden was once locally known as the Monkeys Garden because of the monkeys and birds that lived here before moving to Ramat Gan Safari. This chapter left a lasting impression on how residents remember the place.
The garden is located along Maale ha-Tsofim Street and can be accessed from multiple directions. It is helpful to wear comfortable shoes when exploring the various pathways and sections.
The hill where the garden sits served as a strategic position during World War I, where British cannons were positioned against Turkish forces. This military history is not obvious today, but the elevated location of the garden still reflects that past use.
