A trip to Israel is incomplete without a visit to Jerusalem because firstly, it is celebrated as the holy city and secondly, it is capital of the country. The Old City in Jerusalem is a place of huge importance for three religions – Judaism, Christianity and Islam. For Christians, it is a place where Jesus died, was buried and rose. However, the city also has a modern side that is full of restaurants, cafes and cultural life.
A heart-shaped, fresh-water lake situated in the hills of northern Israel is the picturesque Sea of Galilee. Jesus performed some of his best known miracles here, including Church of Multiplication, where he fed five thousand people fish and bread. The lake gets its water supply mainly from the Jordan River and today provides Israeli fishermen in the town of Tiberias with freshwater fish, enough to be sold commercially as well.
