Motza is located in the heart of biblical lands, an area rich in history dating back to Canaanite times. In 71 CE, a Roman garrison was stationed here to control the road to Jerusalem. Today, its strategic location and excellent accessibility in one of Israel's most prestigious areas make it highly desirable. Its proximity to Israel's political, cultural, and business hubs makes it an exceptionally convenient and high-quality area.

Its unique stone houses, green spaces, and mountainous landscapes blend perfectly with an educated and refined population composed mainly of professionals. All these elements position Motza as an exclusive and prestigious community.
