The park in our opinion is one of the most beautiful and impressing ones – it counts some 20 layers of settlement – and is one of the UNESCO international heritage sites.
The first settlements are dated back to some 5000-6000 years ago. The city had many conquerors: The Egyptians, the Philistines, then it became part of the kingdom of David and Solomon, was rebuilt after a fire in the Hellenistic period, conquered by the Hasmoneans, and came to greatness during the Roman Period, only after the Arab conquest it turned into a small town.
We believe that the Roman Cardo, the baths and the theater, an ancient house of Egyptian governor and the Crusader remains making this park a must-to-visit!
