The Lower Galilee region of Israel is just a one hour drive from the main cities including Tel Aviv, yet is worlds away. The least hilly region of Galilee, the Lower Galilee stretches from the Jezreel Valley (Valley of the Armageddon in Christianity) on the eastern slopes of Mount Carmel across to the Sea of Galilee. It includes Mount Tabor, BET SHEARIM, Megiddo, TZIPPORI and Mount Gilboa, the city of Nazareth, and amazing numbers of outdoor and leisure pursuits.
Located on the border of the Jezreel Valley & Lower Galilee. Home to a vast burial site from the 2nd, 3rd & 4th centuries. Made up of catacombs that house many sarcophagi that are adorned with ellaborate symbols & figures. The site is often likened to a book carved in stone.

Has a rich & diverse historical & architectural legacy that includes Jewish, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, Arab, Crusader & Ottoman influences.
