About this audio guide
This guide to Liberty Bell Park in Jerusalem follows a decades-long puzzle: a Liberty Bell replica, given to Israel's Knesset by Philadelphia representatives in 1955, sat mostly unseen for two decades before it suddenly turned up in this newly built park in 1976. For years nobody in the Knesset could say who approved the move or why. Best heard standing in front of the bell itself, at the center of the park's lawns and amphitheater.
