Friendly warning! We're working hard to be accurate. But these are unusual times, so please check that venues remain open.
Overlooking the Sea of Galilee, Korazim contains the ruins of an ancient Jewish town.
A 25 acre park, Korazim is one of the most well preserved ancient cities dating back to the Second Temple era. Korazim is mentioned in the New Testament as one of the three cities cursed by Jesus (along with Bethsaida and Capernaum). Antiquities are a dime a dozen here, and the stones are stained black having been hewed from the volcanic basalt rock. Check out the basaltic fourth century synagogue and ancient ritual bath, or mikve.
