Jerusalem is a must visit.
Israel left an ambiguous impression. Tel Aviv is not the best option as a beach holiday. There are other countries more suitable for a beach holiday to enjoy the Mediterranean. From Tel Aviv they moved to Jerusalem. It is a very beautiful city, surrounded by mountains and nature. Jerusalem is a city with a thousand-year history and powerful energy. If there is a place close to God, it is Jerusalem. Accordingly, a tour here can only be a pilgrimage. Religious shrines - Temples in the Garden of Gethsemane, Golgotha in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, Garden Tomb. In this place you can rethink the values of life, become a little closer to God. The Old City itself is beautiful, but dangerous. Walking alone is not worth it, even the Way of the Cross must be walked with a group, the police warned us that it is dangerous in the Arab quarter of the Old City. It should be noted that everyone is allowed to carry weapons, because groups of armed men in civilian clothes can be found on the street. About prices. Jerusalem is a very expensive city. About the service in our hotel is missing. Store food is not good. But if the rest is of a pilgrimage nature, these are all trifles. The only city in which you simply do not pay attention to inconveniences, even if they exist. We went to Bethlehem, Nazareth, highly recommend. We got to Father Hilarion in the monastery and are very grateful for his warm welcome. We also stopped at the Dead Sea - horror. Entrance $ 25 per person just on the sea. There are no umbrellas. I have never seen such terrible sun loungers anywhere. But maybe people are being treated there, and not resting. Perhaps as a sanatorium treatment, the Dead Sea is cool. In Israel, I would not recommend going on vacation. But you need to visit Jerusam in order to feel the strongest place, which has no analogues, to see Christian shrines, and finally make sure that miracles exist on this earth. I did not go to rest in Jerusalem, just one day Jerusalem came into my life. . .
