Golda Park, Public park in Negev Mountains, Israel.
Golda Park is a recreational area in the Negev Mountains featuring natural pools and geothermal springs fed by the Revivim River. The park has maintained lawns, shaded groves, and a viewing tower overlooking the surrounding landscape.
The site developed from a former quarry before becoming a public park named after Golda Meir, the nation's Prime Minister. The area held strategic importance during World War I for operations involving allied forces.
The ANZAC memorial within the park honors Australian and New Zealand soldiers through informational displays and a vantage point. Visitors can learn about the role these nations played during World War I in the region.
The park sits along road 222 near Mash'abim Junction and welcomes visitors around the clock. Parking is available, and the setting works well for a half-day visit with swimming and walking opportunities.
The Tali watch towers in the northern section date to World War I and now serve as viewing points across the northern Negev. From here visitors can spot old military infrastructure woven into the present landscape.
