About Haifa

Haifa runs down from Mount Carmel to the port and reads in three tiers: the lower city with its harbour, Hadar halfway up, and the Carmel on top. The gradient is not a detail when booking an appointment: the Carmelit funicular and the buses link the tiers, but a trip between two of them takes longer than the map suggests. It is a mixed city where Jews and Arabs live side by side, and a student city, with the Technion and the university up on the ridge.
