Israel is a small country of deeply revered religious shrines and an eclectic culture—an epicenter of three world religions and an oasis built in the middle of a desert. The state has a centuries-old history full of unexpected turns and dramatic events: the relocation of Jews to Palestine, World War I and World War II, the conflict with Egypt and Syria, the military operation “Peace of Galilee.” “Tel Aviv goes on strolling, Jerusalem prays, Haifa works”—everything you need to know about how a multinational country is arranged. Israel is miles of golden sandy beaches and the warm Mediterranean Sea; ancient Jaffa of Tel Aviv, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Wailing Wall of Jerusalem; the market of Nazareth and the sacred city of Bethlehem.
