Highlights: Kiryat Arba, Hevron, Carmel and Susiya

Kiryat Arba, a fascinating urban center, is the perfect introduction to an inspiring tour of Hevron, the Machpela Cave, Beit Hadassah, Avraham Avinu neighborhood and Beit Romano. Hevron reveals the foundation of Jewish history, and the rebirth of Jewish life today. Carmel, a contemporary settlement at the site of an ancientJewish village. A French botanist produces exotic fragrances and herbal remedies here, using plants that grow in the region. On to Sussiya. As we walk through the remnants of this Talmudic-era Jewish town, it’s not hard to imagine the bustling everyday life that once thrived here.
