Seaside towns of Acre, Haifa, Caesarea
Description:
Seaside towns of Acre, Haifa, Caesarea. This individual tour will begin in the ancient city of Acre, with its unique spirit of the Arab East and the smell of the seaport. Labyrinths of streets will lead us to the dungeons and monastery walls of the Crusaders. You will see how Arab inns - khans and Turkish bazaars were arranged. We will visit the Turkish bath, and from the height of the defensive walls you will be able to "watch" the imaginary siege of the city by Napoleon's troops. I'm going to tell you about the ruler of the city of Al-Jazar, nicknamed "the butcher" for his attitude towards opponents. We will visit a real Arab mosque, which is called Al Jazar and is the third most important in Muslim Israel. Next, our way lies in Haifa, which we will begin with the German Colony, an area built by the German Templars, Christians who believed in the need for the restoration of Palestine by Christian forces. Let's go up to Mount Carmel. Here is the eighth wonder of the world - the Baha'i Gardens, the visible embodiment of Baha'i philosophy, the essence of which is universal love and harmony. We will visit the church of the monastery of Carmelite monks - Stella Maris and admire the view of the whole of Haifa with its sea bay. On the coastal highway, my car will take us to ancient Caesarea, a city built by the Jewish king Herod. Here preserved from those times Roman buildings: theater, racetrack, Herod's palace. We will see how the Roman baths were arranged and we will be able to visit the Roman public toilet, as well as the pride of Herod, the port. Well, we will finish our journey at an amazing structure, a powerful Hero-Roman aqueduct.
