A new series by The Times of Israel profiles unique Israelis, beginning with Batya Ezri, owner of a vintage store in Jerusalem. Ezri’s shop is more than a retail space; it's a portal to the past, attracting customers seeking connection to bygone eras. People visit not just to purchase items, but to reminisce and share memories. The store showcases a collection of artifacts and clothing embodying Jerusalem’s rich history. Ezri herself is dubbed the “time traveler” of Jerusalem due to her ability to curate and share these historical fragments. The feature highlights the importance of preserving cultural heritage through personal stories and tangible objects. Ultimately, Ezri’s store serves as a community hub fostering a sense of belonging and shared identity.
