Nachlat Itzhak Military Cemetery is a burial ground in Givatayim near Tel Aviv where many soldiers are laid to rest. The site consists of neatly arranged gravestones in rows, with simple markers bearing names and dates, some decorated with small flags or symbols.
The cemetery was established in the 1930s after the city's first burial ground filled to capacity. It holds graves of soldiers from the 1948 war, monuments for Holocaust victims, and memorials for fighters from underground groups that operated before Israel became a state.
The cemetery holds the graves of soldiers who served and sacrificed for the country. Local families and visitors come here to remember their loved ones and pay their respects.
The site has paths running between the rows of graves, making it easy for visitors to walk through and locate specific burials. The cemetery is well-maintained with trimmed grass, shaded areas, and benches for sitting and reflection.
The cemetery was built with special bridges to help visitors cross the Ayalon River and reach the site during rainy weather. These early efforts show how the community worked to make this an accessible place of remembrance.
