The national currency in Israel is the New Israeli Shekel (abbreviated to NIS or ILS). When travelling to Israel you need to change your home currency to shekels at one of the money exchange points, in the airport, or at an ATM. A few places such as tourist souvenir stores and hotels will accept dollars but you will usually get a better price when paying in shekels.
