Enjoy the story of Jerusalem at the Night Spectacular show at the Tower of David Museum, where a breathtaking cinematography presents 3000 years of the city’s history in huge colorful film and images.
The Night Spectacular is shown multiple times a week outside in the courtyard of the restored ancient citadel at the Jaffa Gate entrance to Jerusalem’s Old City.
Amidst the archaeological remains in the Citadel’s courtyard and to the sound of original music, the story of Jerusalem unfolds through giant virtual reality images.
Eighteen projectors are being used to project the Night Spectacular onto the ancient walls of the citadel.
The first of its kind M-Vision Laser 18K projectors by British company Digital Projection have recently been installed at the Tower of David Museum, Jerusalem.
This is the largest installation of 18,000 Lumen Single Chip M-Vision Laser projectors in the world, say the organisers.
The projectors have been chosen for the quality of their high definition projection and their ability to map images on the historical Tower of David. Proprietary features, such as ColourBoost technology, coupled with a 10,000:1 contrast ratio brings out new dimensions in The Night Spectacular that had never been seen before with sharp high resolution cinematography, bold color and crisp lines, according to the organisers.
The 18 laser projectors and their associated accessories, a hardware investment of close to $750,000, were part of a total investment of $2.2 million by the Tower of David.
Besides, the show also includes 10 video players, 14 computers and 14 loudspeakers.
But do remember, the show takes place outside. It is advised to purchase tickets in advance (can be booked online) and to bring warm clothing.
