Israel 2.0 – Banias Nature Reserve & Nimrod

Published by Sula H.

Banias Nature Reserve Wanting to make good use of our Israel pass, we start looking for things listed in our ticket book and decide to start our day by visiting the Banias Nature Reserve. Um den Israelpass gut zu nutzen, sehen wir uns um nach Sehenswertem, die in unserem Ticketbuch gelistet sind. Somit entscheiden wir uns, den Tag im Banias Nature Reserve zu beginnen.                 Upon entering the site, we follow the well-trodden path that leads along the River Senir’s banks and through a gorge.

Published by Sula H.

We’re back in Israel. And once again, our trip starts in Tel Aviv. After spending a little time at the beach, we wait for the heat to cool off again before we go exploring Old Yafo. Wir sind zurück in Israel und unsere Reise beginnt in Tel Aviv. Nachdem wir ein bisschen Zeit am Strand verbracht haben, warten wir bis die Hitze des Tages abkühlt, um uns dann in Jaffa umzusehen.                   We end our day in the harbor below old Yafo, which seems to be a hip place to be with lots of eateries and free wifi. Wir beenden den Tag im Hafen unterhalb von Jaffa, der ziemlich angesagt zu sein scheint. Es gibt viele Lokale und Wifi.
