Karmiel, which in Hebrew means “God’s vineyards” is aptly named because the city is blessed with a beautiful lush natural scenery surrounding its modern structures. This city located in northern Israel was established in 1964 and is the first to be developed with a master urban plan. It was only in 1986 that Karmiel officially attained city status.
Karmiel received several awards like the Beautiful Israel prize in 1981 and in areas of management, quality of life and immigrant absorption. The years 1990 until 2002 saw a huge number of immigrants especially from Lebanon moving to the city. The city was destroyed in 2006 during the second Lebanon war. But with its resurrection, the city was better than ever that in 2010 several Israeli and Arabic families moved to Karmiel with hopes of improving their lives.
