Unique places to explore in Israel

Biblical cities and untamed landscapes, cosmopolitan and cultured, Israel is a country that can offer you uniquely stimulating experiences.

• A holy city for Christianity, Islam and Judaism, Jerusalem is one of the oldest cities in the world and a giant melting pot of faiths and civilisations. Wander through the endless maze of the Old City. Walk in the footsteps of Jesus Christ along the street of Martyrs and experience the solemn atmosphere of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Touch the overwhelming Wailing Wall, a holy place for Judaism and the remains of the ancient Temple of Solomon, and stroll past the Dome of the Rock, the octagonal Islamic mosque of Islam so that you can experience the curious proximity of the three major faiths. A stop at the extraordinary Israel Museum is a must: there you can get a closer look at the Dead Sea Scrolls and compelling archaeological and artistic treasures.
• Diametrically opposed to the emotionally charged capital, Tel Aviv, just 100 years old, is the Israeli version of New York. Youthful, liberal, spirited, removed from religious passions, it captivates visitors with its energy and unexpected sights. The White City, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a suburb of more than 4,000 houses in the Bauhaus style, while the modern Museum of Art features classical and modern masterpieces.
• Haifa, built along mountain slopes, has a secret in store for visitors: the unique lush gardens of the Bahá'í World Centre cascading down the slopes of Mount Carmel, offer a majestic view of the city, the Mediterranean and the hills of Galilee.

  Exploring Israel

  Far from the large urban centres, the myth of Israel captures the imagination.

  • Acre, the well-known citadel of the Crusaders, is located in northern Israel, where the majority of the Muslim population of the country is to be found. Nowadays, thanks to the extremely well preserved castle and its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site, it is an important pole of attraction for visitors.
  • The ancient fortress and summer palace built by Herod the Great on the rocky plateau of Masada, 147 km south of Jerusalem, impresses with its biblical austerity and grandeur.
  • Don't miss seeing Caesarea Maritima, the large Roman port built by Herod in 23-13 BC with the extraordinary archaeological findings, large amphitheatre and impressive aqueduct rising along the coast.

  Israel is a unique amalgamation of civilisations that one should visit at least once in a lifetime, though best not during the hot summer months. Book your tickets with Aegean Airlines and fly to the holy lands of faith and history.
