The gala events will also include a moving tribute to Israel’s fallen soldiers and victims of terror as part of Israel’s Memorial Day.
Traveling to Israel?
Tourism in Israel includes a rich variety of historical and religious sites, as well as modern beach resorts, archaeological tourism, heritage tourism and ecotourism. Israel has the highest number of museums per capital in the world. Over 10 million tourists visited Israel last year.
One of Haifa’s best features is the beach. The beaches are located on the south entrance to the city.
You can stay on a kibbutz or at a 5 star spa hotel in Masada, with spa treatments, great service, pools, snack bars and entertainment all day long.
You can also visit Hadassah Hospital in Ein Kerem and see the amazing technological/medical advances developed there.
The Israeli wine industry has wineries numbering in the hundreds and ranging in size from small boutique enterprises, making a few thousand bottles per year, to the largest, producing over ten million bottles per year.
Local wineries/wine companies such as Royal Wines/Kedem represent predominantly 70% of Israeli exported wines such as Carmel, Barkan, Segals, Binyamina and much more.
There are endless reasons to celebrate Israel, during this 60th anniversary and all year long! Whether you stay in Holon or shop at the local Holon market in Brooklyn, you are supporting Israel!
