Ramat Shlomo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ramat Shlomo (lit. Shlomo's Heights) is a neighborhood in northern Jerusalem, Israel.
Ramat Shlomo was founded in 1995. As of 2000, it had a population of 18,000, mostly Haredi Jews. Ramat Shlomo borders Ramot to the west, Har Hotzvim to the south, and Shuafat to the east. Initially called Reches Shuafat (Shuafat Ridge), it was later named for Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Auerbach.[1]
Less than 200 meters separate the neighborhood's furthermost houses from the first row of homes in Shuafat and Beit Hanina. [2]
