Silwan Swims

A few years ago, it was possible for the residents of Silwan to enjoy the natural waters of the spring that was open for their recreation.

Since the area was closed off for touristic purposes, the residents have lost the opportunity to enjoy the cool waters of the spring.

With the help of a local swimming coach, Madaa organized a swimming course for the men of Silwan. The course takes place twice a week in the Anata swimming pool, where the men practice their swimming skills, and get the chance to socialize around the pool.
