Tourism in Israel: The North

Hanan and Galit outside the Museum of Photography in Tel Hai.

Northern Israel is known for its striking beauty. It is also known as a great place for adventure lovers! In that spirit, we sent Hanan Krisher - of Pardess Hanna - and Galit Malka - of Tzefat - all over northern Israel, in order to get a better prospective of what it is really like in this amazing region.

Akko (Acre)

Galilee - It is solitude, for birds and squirrels on the shore and fishes in the water are all the creatures that are near to make it
otherwise, but it is not the sort of solitude to make one dreary. Come to Galilee for that. If these unpeopled deserts, these rusty
mounds of barrenness, that never, never, never do shake the glare from their harsh outlines, and fade and faint into vague
perspective; that melancholy ruin of Capernaum; this stupid village of Tiberias, slumbering under its six funereal plumes of
palms; yonder desolate declivity where the swine of the miracle ran down into the sea, and doubtless thought it was better to
swallow a devil or two and get drowned into the bargain than have to live longer in such a place; this cloudless, blistering sky;
this solemn, sailless, tintless lake, reposing within its rim of yellow hills and low, steep banks, and looking just as expressionless
and unpoetical (when we leave its sublime history out of the question,) as any metropolitan reservoir in Christendom -- if these
things are not food for rock me to sleep, mother, none exist, I think.
Twain, Mark, The Innocents Abroad; or, The New Pilgrims' Progress, 1869.
