Overview

Israel, a small country with so much to see…

The modern state of Israel was established in 14.5.48 and in 60 years came through a long way. In an area of 22,000 square km live about 7,300,000 people, with a broad diversity of religions and cultures.

 Israel is located between three continents and from the beginning of history was an important connection where goods were transported between empires.

Evidence for that centrality of this area that lasted for thousands of years you can still find today! Magnificent and fascinating historical sites from 6000 years before our time are located throughout the country.

Also, three of the biggest religions - the Judaism, the Christianity and the Islam - locate the holiest places to them in one city, Israel’s capital - Jerusalem. In a territory of no more then one square km you can find the temple mount and the church of the holy sepulcher, the city of David and more and more… 

Jerusalem is by no doubt one of the most unique cities in world.

Moreover, the scenery in Israel is special and diverse. You can cross the country from north to south in about 8 hours only, going through green snow-covered mountains, gold sunny beaches, urbanite cities, deserts and also a vibrant beach town. 

In addition there are unique phenomenons like the “machtesh”- a kind of a crater found almost only in Israel and of course - the “dead sea” which is the lowest place in the world and by no doubt one of the most beautiful also.

Besides the scenery, anyone that visits Israel will notice the warmth and friendliness of the Israelis! The Hebrew is the main language spoken, but they will be pleased to take the opportunity to talk English or any other language.
