Back in 1869, Mark Twain famously wrote about his trip to Palestine:
… A desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds… a silent mournful expanse…. Even the olive tree and the cactus, those fast friends of a worthless soil, had almost deserted the country. If only Twain could visit the Israel of 2011! Today, Israel offers its visitors a once in a lifetime experien
ce. From the modern city of Tel Aviv, to the ancient ruins of Megido; from the heights of the Golan Wine Country, to the world's lowest point, the salt baths of the Dead Sea. Walk with the rebels during the Roman Empire up to Herod’s Masada, or enjoy Herod’s Caesarea with a good old fashion Theatre. Travel in Jesus's footsteps from Nazerath to Jerusalem, and at the same time visit the holiest sites for the world's three major religions in the City of David, Temple Mount and the Church of Holy Sepulchre. Israel is all that and more, From fine dining to market shopping, from theological experiences to pure fun. Thousands of years of history rise up everywhere your head turns to, and that is just the beginning. Shalom, I am Hillel Meyer, raised in Israel and a world traveler.
