| Remains of Capernaum synagogue |
It is written about Jesus that He didn't stay in Nazareth, but went to live in Capernaum (Kfar Nahum in Hebrew) (Matthew 4:13). Today there is not much left of that old town on the shores of the Sea of Gallilee, but the old synagogue is certainly worth a visit. It still breathes the atmosphere of biblical times.

| Arbel National Park |
Arbel National Park was a pleasant surprise. No crowds here, just tranquility and spectacular views of the Tiberias area.

| Greek Orthodox church Capernaum |
As we were strolling along the shoreline of the Sea of Gallilee, we stumbled upon this picturesque Greek church near Capernaum. Tranquility, beautiful gardens and grand views of the lake... awesome!
