Although Israel is going through many conflicts, there are many places to travel to that will make the trip worthwhile.

Israel is a country where Jews from all over the world come to feel a sense of being at home. With such cities to explore such as Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Eliat, Caesarea, and Haifa. This cities plus more are seen by millions of tourists excitingly awaiting an adventure of a lifetime to their homeland. 

Jerusalem has many sights to be seen. The kotel, Ben Yehuda Street, Dome of the Rock, Mount Zion, and others that can be explored while in this holy city. The Old City is the main part of this city and is the place where you can see many other cultural divides such as: Muslim, Christian, and Jewish landmarks. At night, the hot spot in this city is Ben Yehuda Street which has many shops and restaurants where one can get all of their souvenirs at low prices (if you bargain!) 

Tel Aviv has the most magnificent beaches that are on the Mediterranean coast. Whether you go a bit north of Tel Aviv or south there is much to see at this destination. Go south and Jaffa will be where you end up; north will take you to a higher class part of Tel Aviv where the major university is located. One major location in this city is Rabin Square which has tons of places to eat and businesses. When you first get to Tel Aviv it may look ancient, but once you give it a shot you can see that there is lots of life to this city!

Eliat is the southern most part of Israel. Sun is something seen there daily and is a great place to enjoy some water sports. The main destination in this city is going into the Red Sea. This is an experience of a lifetime and will have some amazing memories while diving into the Red Sea. This city is also a main city for nightlife and also is a spectacular place to shop. 

Caesarea not only relates to ancient times, but is seen by people on a daily basis because of its history. The history dates back to centuries where the city was named after an emperor. This city was once the capital of Israel (then called Palestine) when it was in the Roman’s hands until they were christianized by the emperor the city was named after. Persisting many wars, this city is an attraction that one won’t want to miss!

Haifa is the third largest city within Israel. In this city there are things to do such as climb up the Carmel mountains and explore the surroundings. Have fun looking around as you navigate through this city. 

Enjoy the cities of Israel and make sure to make your trip the trip that you have always wanted in your homeland!
