Overview:
Israel possesses a
number of diverse regions, with landscapes varying between
coast, mountain, valley and desert landscapes, with just about
everything in between. Beyond the towns and cities, each region
of Israel holds its own unique attractions. Israel is an
exceptional country. The story of this land and its people is
truly like nowhere else on earth.
Known by millions around the world as the
Holy Land' (together with areas of Jordan, Egypt and the
Palestinian Territories), to three major world religions -
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam - as well as a vibrant modern
history and culture, based in no small part on the diverse,
mostly immigrant origins of its inhabitants from the Arab world
and the Jewish Diaspora. These aspects make Israel a fascinating
destination for many travellers and pilgrims.
