Those of you looking to connect with your soul, the spiritually awakening desert, and hey, even some funky Israeli music, should definitely be heading to the Zorba the Buddha festival!
This festival is a unique mix of spirituality and the celebration of life. Spread over 4-5 days, in both the Spring and Fall, enjoy some great tunes, workshops and meditation, while looking out over the spectacular views of Desert Ashram.
The Zorba the Buddha festival takes place at Desert Ashram, on road 40 between Mitzpe Ramon and Eilat, deep in the desert…you can also get there via the 392 bus, which stops very close by.
This festival is perhaps one of the most unique festivals you’ll ever come across, especially in Israel. With plenty of different arenas for dealing with the spiritual and self-development world, expect to come away spiritually fulfilled and just plain and simple blissed out…
With some great instructors, musicians, and amazing desert landscape filled with beautiful people, enjoy a world of love, openness, meditations and dance. Or so festival organizers say.
For more information, see the official website or call 08-6326508. Tickets aren’t cheap, starting at around 500 shekels, but they include everything, and that’s 4-5 days of activities! There are air-conditioned rooms available, but they cost extra.
