Israel
Israel offers the traveller, whether religious or not, a biblical journey. Memories from Sunday school resurface when you hear the names Bethlehem, Jerusalem, the Church of Nativity, Nazareth and the Wailing Wall. Jerusalem is a must for every traveller. Walk the cobbled streets of the Via Dolorosa to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, witness the prayers at the Wailing Wall and enter the walled city and walk through the Jewish Quarter.
Do take a newspaper and a camera so that you can be photographed lying in the Dead Sea, floating weightless almost completely above the water as you read your paper – just like a Sunday morning lie-in. For the adventurous you could try an overnight stay in a Kibbutz – you may be tempted to stay longer!
