The Promised Land. Tel Aviv beach with the Mediterranean Sea.
The Golden city of God : Jerusalem. View from the Mount of Olives.
The sound of the shofar is raising from the Western Wall in Jerusalem.
The legendary Dead Sea. Tradition claims Sodom and Gomorrah, the two cities of the Sin, laid behind. Gen Pace next favourite place !! Mine also !
Israeli chicks dressed like FBI agents for Purim (Carnival)
Fish, israeli bread and israeli salad at the Old port of Jaffa, near Tel Aviv.
Israeli main port of Haifa, in the north. You can see the coast of Lebanon on the upper left of the photo. Haifa received Katioucha rockets last summer.
IDF soldiers in Tel Aviv
Another photograph of the Dead Sea area near Qumran, where the Qumran Scrolls were found. Jordan is on the opposite.
Stay, more to come...
Lovely. Thanks.
thanks for the photos
I meant Sodom and Ghommora are under the Dead Sea... Yep you understood, yep I'm not English speaking, yep I just returned from a country where I couldn't understand one word nor read any sign.
God's language is pretty hard.
Except : "barura yaffa" which means "beautiful girl !!" in Hebrew
Wonderful Pictures! Some place I would love to visit. Who's the bathing beauty? ;-)
Thank you for sharing! I look forward to seeing more!
Beautiful pictures- thanks for sharing!
Just beautiful. All of the Mediterranean is paradise. The pictures remind me of my year in Crete. Thank you for posting those wonderful images.
Nazareth. The church of the Annunciation, when the Angel came to Mary. 
The stone on which Jesus laid when he was brought down from the cross. Hispanic pilgrims were especially moved by the holy stone and many cried. Pretty moving for Christians. I'm touching the stone on the photo. 
King George V Monastery in the Juda desert. In an amazingly biblical landscape. 
Jerusalem, the "via dolorosa", the way of the cross when Jesus went through the city to face death. The guy on the photo with the cross was preparing the holy demonstration, each Friday, led by the Franciscan.
More to come...
Nice job!
If you want the descriptions to come out underneath then add 'br' enclosed in left and right brackets "<" and ">" under or after each photo.
I should add that you need to use 'br' after each line you type also.
Thanx, but I find the line on the right good.
We are right-whingers bro !!!
"We are right-whingers bro !!!"
LOL!

The Dom of the Rocks. According to the muslims, it is the area where Muhammad raise to Heaven. According to historians, Muhammad was dead before the muslim armies entered Jerusalem. But muslims need a pretext to steal the Mount of the Temple from the Jews. 
Fruits market in Jericho (Palestinian territories) 
The Western Wall, the Holiest site for the Jews and, frankly, the most moving place in Israel, even for non-jews (as me). 
Holy Mary's tomb in Jerusalem. 
Souks (markets) in the Christian Quarter of Jerusalem Old City 
The place where Jesus was born, in the Nativity Church (Palestinian territories). This *çç%*%*%* terrorists-cowards hid in the church and fought the IDF in 2002. Fortunately, it is still a great place to visit. 
The Juda desert Heights, and the way to King George V Monastery 
Nazareth fields, where Jesus grew up. A british buisness man decided to create the "Nazareth village" in the middle of the city. This reenactment of the Jesus times is great. A lot of Americans were visiting at the time I was.
More to come...
Thank you very much for sharing!
