The Zedekiah cave, spanning approximately 9,000 square meters, measures 225 meters in length, 100 meters in width, and 6.5 meters in height, was used as an ancient quarry. 

From there they carved the stones known by their Arabic name “Mizi Malka”, a fine building stone that was used to build the magnificent buildings of Jerusalem. As far as is known, the quarrying began on the site during the First Temple period making this quarry the place where the stones were carved out to build the First Temple.  

This cave can accommodate tours with an audio-visual 30-minute tour and host unforgettable social events, concerts and conferences.
