For some, the word “Israel” seems to evoke fear - the war-torn nation has had its fair share of rough times and misconceptions that seemed to have multiplied over the years. However, the beauty of Israel should not be forgotten underneath the rubble of its past; towering silhouettes of century-old churches and holy mosques that resonate in prayer against the setting sun are the first thoughts that come to mind for others. Bask in the beauty of this region, and witness the must-visit monasteries and national parks that will reel you in completely.
Stay in the midst of natural beauty all around you with the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Israel.
