(Newswire.net — July 18, 2019) — More and more people are flying to Israel every day, and it is no wonder why. As well as being home to the most recent Eurovision competition in Tel Aviv, Israel is home to some of the most historical and interesting sites of the world. 

If you are planning to fly to Israel, take a look at these 5 destinations to give you the perfect holiday inspiration:

1) Nazareth

  • Nazareth, in the lower part of Galilee, is a must see for anyone of the Christian faith, or anyone interested in the vast culture of Israel. As well as being the largest city in the Northern district of Israel, the area is perhaps more commonly known as the childhood home of Jesus, and is therefore the centre of a Christian pilgrimage. But Nazareth is not just popular with Christians. The area has a vast array of factories that show how Nazareth would have looked in the past.It is also a cultural centre, offering dozens of shops, mosques, churches and historical sites. 

2) The Dead Sea

  • The Dead Sea is a landlocked salt lake between Israel and Jordan, and also has the lowest elevation and is the lowest body of water on the surface of Earth. It is known as the Dead Sea because it is landlocked: this causes the water in it to evaporate, meaning that is incredibly salty. So salty, that people can float on it (hence the term ‘dead’). Many people claim that this lake is a centre for healing, due to the mineral content of its waters and higher than normal atmospheric pressure. A perfect day out for anyone wanting to soak up the sun. 

3) Hagafen Outlook

  • Haifa is the third largest city in Israel, and the view on the entire city is no better than at the top of the Hagafen Outlook. The Outlook provides any viewers with a two-way view of the Bahai Gardens and the german colony below. The Bahai gardens are also a must visit, as are one of the most viewed attractions in the entirety of Israel.
