Constructed from a mosaic of different quarters, each with a strong identity, Jerusalem also houses the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Dome of the Rock: three holy monuments for each of the three monotheistic religions.

Mitzpe Ramon is the town that overlooks the incredible crater of Makhtesh Ramon. For a few years some unusual hotels have been opening in this little town. It's a good place to stay to explore the crater.

Galilee is my favourite region in Israel. It is diverse but also relatively homogenous. By diverse I am talking about the rich heritage, what with Safed, a centre of Jewish mysticism; Nazareth's Church of the Annunciation; or the Druze and Circassian villages. I really recommend going to the region during a <a href="/israel/">trip to Israel</a>. There are lots of things to see and do there. The gourmets among you can try the wine and other local specialties (cheese, olives, figs, za'atar, etc.). Those who love walking can wind along the paths of Mount Meron, the village of Rosh Pinna, or Mount Carmel. If you are passionate about history there are major archaeological sites such as Megiddo or Beit She'an. I prefer going in the spring (which arrives at the end of February over there) because the hills of Galilee are covered in wild anemones and the almonds are in full flower.
