Masada
At the edge of the Judean Desert, on a rocky plateau overlooking the Dead Sea, lies the excavated ruin of a royal citadel. It was the last stronghold held by the Jewish Zealots who refused to submit to Roman occupation. When they could hold out no longer, Masada became the backdrop for one of the most dramatic scenes in Jewish history.

Dead Sea
In one terrifying moment, an act of G-d turned an oasis into infertile wasteland. Unique geological conditions then combined to form the Dead Sea, a sea that is more than eight times as salty as the oceans.
Over the years, the silent desert around this sea became a refuge for spiritual escapists. Now, the Dead Sea is once again a top destination for those seeking healing and peace of mind. noVeMber 2014 CheshVan - KisleV 5775 SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY

Jordan River
The Jordan River is a major water source that flows through the Jordan Rift Valley into the Dead Sea. For Israel, the water of the Jordan River is an absolute neccessity for drinking water and for irrigation.
In the Torah, the Jordan River is mentioned several times as a source of fertility for Israel. It is here that Joshua and the tribes of Israel miraculously crossed into Jericho, and also the scene of many biblical battles.

Rachel's Tomb
For centuries, it lay on a deserted roadside, and Rachel's descendents come here to pour out their hearts to her - the mother who dwells in a lonely wayside grave in order to be there for her suffering children. Rachel is a continuous source of comfort to her children— praying for her children and eliciting the divine promise of her children's return to their Promised Land.

Cave of Machpelah
One of the most famous pieces of real estate on earth is the Cave of Machpelah (also known as the "Cave of the Patriarchs") in the southern Israeli city of Hebron.
Machpelah means "doubled" in Hebrew. One reason given is that four prestigious couples are buried there: Adam and Eve, Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, and Jacob and Leah.

The old city Caesarea required a steady flow of running water. Initially its waters came from the local wells. However, as the population grew to several hundred thousand people, a large scale aqueduct was required to bring the water from a distance.

The Second Temple
The Holy Temple in Jerusalem was built by King Solomon in the year 2928 from creation (833 BCE), and was destroyed 410 years later, on the ninth day of the month of Av, by the armies of the Babylonian emperor Nebuchadnezzar.
Seventy years later it was rebuilt; the second Temple stood for 420 years, until its destruction by the Romans, also on the ninth of Av, in 3829 (69 CE).
Ever since, the 9th of Av has been a day of fasting and repentance—a day on which we mourn the destruction, and pray for the coming of Moshiach, when the third and final Temple will be restored to its place as the divine epicenter of the universe.

Montefiore Windmill
The Montefiore Windmill is a landmark windmill in Jerusalem, Israel. Built in the Mishkenot Sha'ananim neighborhood in 1857, it was designed as a flour mill.
The windmill serves as a small museum honored and dedicated to the achievements of British Jewish banker and philanthropist Moses Montefiore. It was restored in 2012 with a new cap and sails in the style of the originals. The mill can turn in the wind.

Tiberias
The northern Israeli city of Tiberias, one of the four holy cities in Israel, was built along the shore of the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee), near seventeen natural hot springs, it is known as the "City of Water."
Some 2,000 years ago, Tiberias was the center of Jewish study and the last seat of the Sanhedrin (Supreme Court of Jewish law). After enduring constant wars throughout the Middle Ages, the city was revived by an influx of kabbalists in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The city's major attractions are the Kinneret, its natural hot springs and the graves of many historical luminaries.
