Well,
this is a tough ask, narrowing down Israel’s top 5 “must do” list. But
here it’s our sincere attempt to bring you the best of the Holy Land
with our “ultimate checklist” – these are the things that you must see
& do in Israel, it doesn’t matter if you are in this amazing land
for a long weekend or a month. Here we go:
Float in the Dead Sea:
This
is the lowest point of the earth and one exceptional place to pay a
trip. If you have to chill out and feeling rundown, the Dead Sea is the
place to visit in Israel. Bring you digital camera so that you don’t
miss that picture taking opportunity. Float yourself on the warm, salty
sea for that ultimate adventure. Just avoid diving in.
Pay a trip to the Old City of Jerusalem:
The
Old City of Jerusalem is a must-see, being home to niches of crucial
spiritual significance, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the
Dome of the Rock and the Western Wall. You’ll love to spend an entire
day here: put a prayer amid the cracks of gigantic stones that make up
the Western Western Wall, surf the stalls in the tapered boulevards of the Old City bazaar, and pay a trip to the site of Jesus’ crucifixion
Bargain in the Camel Market, Tel Aviv:
If you want to sharpen your bargaining abilities and get the real taste of Israel, then a trip to the Carmel market
in central Tel Aviv is a must. Starting your trip at the Allenby Street
end, ramble past the numerous garments stall prior to you hit the
bazaar’s epicenter; the food & spices. Incredible colors, amazing
aromas… pay attention to the stall retailers hawk their merchandises
and tease each other over prices, quality and space. For a great
experience take a tour guide with you.
Stand at the border of the Ramon Crater:
A
superb geological aspect of Israel’s mostly desert south, placed
approximately an hour south of Beersheva. The crater is forty kilometer
in length and 2-10 km in wide, nearly heart-shaped, and naturally
engraved out by water & climate attrition. The biggest crater in the
planet, it descends some five hundred meters at its deepest point. Have
a stunning sight of the Ramon crater from the Mitzpeh Ramon visitor
center, where yes, one can stand at the border of the globe’s biggest
crater.
Explore the mountain fortress of Masada:
Stands
on a remote rock highland in the south east of Israel, the mountain
fortress of Masada is a must-visit to experience the real side of
Israel. The saga of Masada is one of Jewish gallants; one thousand
occupants committed mass suicide instead of surrendering to their Roman
rivalries. March along from the Snake Path to the peak of Masada if you
are feeling bold, or else take the cable car.
