From Nazareth through Cana of Galilee to the Sea of Galilee visit the sites: Mount of Beatitudes, Tabgha, Capernaum, Bethsaida and Kursi. Have a breathtaking view of the Sea of Galilee from top of the mighty Arbel cliff, in which caves the zealots who fought King Herod took shelter. Look at Hittin, where a whole crusader army was destroyed in a single battle. In Tiberias, the main town of the area, see the graves of Rambam (Maimonides) and other famous Jewish scholars and the remains of the ancient town.
Places of Interest:
- Mount Tabor: place of battle between Deborah the prophet and the Canaanites also place of Jesus' transfiguration.
