Lyoka Ledenyova
The house is located by the square and stands at Bialik Street, which is the best Bauhaus and Jugendstil architecture manual. Visit the elaborately decorated house of Israel's prominent poet, Haim Nachman Bialik, who gave the name to the Street. The museum opened in 1937, four years after the poet died and showcases his books, furniture and personal belongings as well as paintings by his contemporaries. About 5,000 manuscripts, including some rare ones are stored in the library but are hard to read if you know no Hebrew. However, the place is a great illustration to the life of European immigrants in the 1920s. Opening hours are Mon-Thu 10 to 5 and Fri-Sat 10 to 2.
