And nobody mentioned Haifa? It’s the most beautiful spot on Earth!
Walk along the beach (there are various promenades).
Take in the view from the Louis Promenade at the top of the hill.
The zoo is small but quite beautiful.
(Be sure to ride the Carmelit – our subway – when you go up to the promenade or the zoo. It’s worth the experience.)
The Haifa City Museum will tell you about the history of Haifa (and it’s small so it doesn’t take much time).
A walk through German Colony is also very nice. (The Haifa City Museum is there.)
The Hecht Museum is great if you like archaeology (and it’s free!).
There are several other museums, too. The best ones are the National Maritime Museum and, next door, the Clandestine Immigration and Naval Museum is a lot of fun.
There is also Madatech, the national science museum, but I’ve never been there.
If you like art, Castra is a great mall. We have many other malls, too, but if you’ve seen a mall, you’ve seen ’em all. 🙂
There are several routes marked on maps for various scenic walks throughout Haifa, but I don’t know how old your grandmother is.
There is Eliyahu’s cave where he hid for some time. (Frankly, it’s a bit disappointing.)
And of course, you can just walk around the frum neighborhoods and see how friendly all the people are.
