JERUSALEM (JTA) — Haifa is poised to be the next home to a Disney amusement park.

A 20-acre, $168 million entertainment complex including a 25-screen multiplex and a Disney amusement park is set to be built near the Carmel Tunnel. 

The Walt Disney Company’s investment arm Shamrock Holdings and the Israeli New Lineo cinema chain announced the plans Tuesday.

The new complex is estimated to open in 2013.
