Rabin Square is interesting for many things, and it is definitely worth visiting during a tour of the White City. The square is not distinguished by the strictness of its architectural composition; on the contrary, it looks as if the various objects on it appeared accidentally and chaotically. This carelessness gives the square a distinctive charm, as do the old olive trees mixed with modern sculpture.
The sculptures in the square are quite unusual and mysterious. For example, when you see from afar a huge semi-transparent pyramid standing upside down, you are unlikely to immediately guess that it is the Holocaust and Revival Monument.
This monument was created by the famous Israeli artist and sculptor Yigal Tumarkin in 1975. The monumental sculpture is made of specially aged steel, which looks rusty and ancient, but can actually stand for many more years. Between the steel strips forming the faces of the pyramid, there used to be dark glass panes. Why they were removed is unknown, but now the monument looks semi-transparent and light despite its impressive dimensions.
