Time Out says

Overlooking the Sea of Galilee, Korazim contains the ruins of an ancient Jewish town.

This 25-acre park 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. Don't miss the basaltic fourth-century synagogue and ancient ritual bath (mikve).
