Stella Maris Lighthouse and Carmelite Monastery

Serving as a pilgrimage centre, this impressive church of the Carmelite Order houses a collection of antiques and its nearby monastery once served as a hospital for Napoleon’s soldiers.

Reviewed By ECLadines - Paranaque, Philippines

Had a simple and quiet lunch here at the monastery arranged by our pilgrimage operator. This after mass by our group and visiting the church itself with a statue of Virgin Mary venerated by many Catholics here. A cave underneath the altar is the statue of Prophet Elijah who had lived here for sometime. If you want to experience some solitude, this place in Haifa is the place to be.

Reviewed By marilynps - Haifa, Israel

This a street that is worthy of a slow walk as you have wonderful views of all of haifa facing the port and the coast up t o the lebanon border. You can see the hills of Lebanon and the hermon and the Western Galilee. You also can view the upper part of the Bahai gardens and enter from this street.

Aqueduct of Caesarea (Mei Kedem)

Reviewed By PaddoLife - Sydney, Australia

Stumbled across this and loved our time on the beach here exploring the 2000 year old aqueduct and splashing in the Mediterranean sea. Even in Winter the water was warm and our kids enjoyed a break from the touring to collect shells and splash in the water.

Theatre at Caesarea National Park

Reviewed By TimC948

This is somewhere I have been wanting to visit for a long time. Caesarea Maritima was the capital of Roman Judaea, so included many of the features of Roman civilisation, including this magnificent amphitheatre. When we visited, we were free to wander around and even sit where theatre goers of two thousand years ago would have enjoyed, perhaps, a Roman adaptation of a Sophocles play or other Greek drama. The theatre is still in use which explained the modern sound and other equipment on the stage when we were there. It somewhat marred what otherwise would have been some evocative photographs, but so be it. If you are interested in classical antiquity, do not give this a miss.

Louis Promenade

Reviewed By Deventernaar - Deventer, The Netherlands

We need to take taxi Louis Promenade because on Saturday there is minimum public transportation. The driver was very kind. On the way up he explained some highlights we passed. The promenade has an excellent view.. We did a nice walk and enjoyed the atmosphere.
