Yefeh Nof

Yefeh Nof (Hebrew: יפה נוף) is a neighborhood in west Jerusalem, founded in 1929. Together with Ramat Beit HaKerem and Givat Beit HaKerem, it is part of the larger Beit HaKerem neighborhood. Its name is one of the seventy poetic names the Hebrew Bible uses for Jerusalem (Psalms 48:3), and literally means "a place with a beautiful view".

gollark: A lot of developed countries seem to have issues like this because the old stuff technically works and has tons of inertia and regulatory nonsense and nobody cares enough to replace it, but developing ones which didn't have big telephone networks or whatever presumably just installed fibre and did fine.
