  • Israel Travel Guide You Are Reading Is a Greatly Expanded Version of One I First Prepared for an American Friend Some Two Decades Ago
    ISRAEL: A PERSONAL TRAVEL GUIDE By Douglas E. Duckett Cincinnati, Ohio, USA [email protected] ©2004-2016 Douglas E. Duckett All rights reserved. INTRODUCTION. The Israel travel guide you are reading is a greatly expanded version of one I first prepared for an American friend some two decades ago. In it, I have tried to share my experiences and knowledge of Israel based on a lifetime of study and fifteen visits to the country, most recently in May 2016. I enjoy independent travel, and this guide was written primarily with such travelers in mind, though I hope the information will be helpful to those on group tours as well. As an American, I have produced a guide that, no doubt, reflects that identify and experience. I hope my readers from other countries will forgive that, and still find useful information to help plan their trips. I am not in the travel industry. Rather, I am a labor lawyer who loves Israel passionately and wants to encourage others to travel there and experience this wonderful land. My first visit was in November 1988, and I caught the bug; thus I started visiting every other year or so thereafter, except for 2000-2004, the truly terrible years of the second Palestinian uprising and the terror bombings in Israel cities. Now, with partial retirement, I am going every year (God willing!). Even with the mostly peaceful conditions prevailing since then, some friends still asked, “are you sure you want to go back to Israel?” Of course, recent tensions in Jerusalem, with a wave of stabbing attacks on Israelis, have further increased those anxieties, even for me to some degree.

  • History: Re-Birth of a Nation
    From Modest Beginnings to a Vibrant State History: Re-Birth of a Nation The birthplace of the Jewish people is the Land of Israel (Eretz Yisrael). There, a significant part of the nation’s long history was enacted, of which the first thousand years are recorded in the Bible; there, it’s cultural, Remember the days of old, religious, and national identity was formed; and there, its physical consider the years of many presence has been maintained through the centuries, even after the generations... majority was forced into exile. During the many years of dispersion, the (Deuteronomy 32:7) Jewish people never severed nor forgot its bond with the Land. With the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Jewish independence, lost 2,000 years earlier, was renewed. Israel The Jewish Homeland From Biblical Days Written by Professor Joshua Schwartz What makes a “homeland”? Is it the territory that binds an ethnic group together, a geographic entity possessing a long association with that ethnic group, perhaps its “country of origin” in which its national identity was born? This is how we usually think today of “Jewish homeland”: the term is often synonymous with “Jewish State,” “Homeland of the Jewish People,” “National Home for the Jewish People” and even State of Israel. These concepts, however, are modern and relate mostly to modern perceptions of national identity and geography. Perceptions change and, The story of Israel begins not in Israel but in Mesopotamia ABOVE: Jersualem’s thus, so, theoretically, might homelands. Thus, a Jewish “beyond the River” (Euphrates).

  • The Jaffa, Tel Aviv Opens in the Old City of Jaffa, Tel Aviv’S Most Vibrant Neighbourhood
    THE JAFFA, TEL AVIV OPENS IN THE OLD CITY OF JAFFA, TEL AVIV’S MOST VIBRANT NEIGHBOURHOOD RFR Holding with The Luxury Collection Offer Travellers a 5-star Gateway to One of the Most Enchanting Cities in the World Stairwell (Left), and Chapel (Right) at The Jaffa Image Credit: Amit Geron September, 2018 – New York based hotel and real estate company RFR Holding, founded by Aby Rosen, opened their first hotel in Israel- The Jaffa, Tel Aviv, operated by Marriott’s The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts. The Jaffa joins The Luxury Collection’s global portfolio of one-of-a-kind hotels that define their destinations, bringing a new benchmark of luxury hospitality to Tel Aviv. “The Jaffa has been my longest and most personal project to date,” said Aby Rosen, Owner and Co-founder of RFR Holding. “From the outset I saw this as a unique opportunity to develop a truly remarkable hotel with residences in the heart of old Jaffa. Not only is it the longest continuously inhabited city in the world, but it has also become one of the coolest neighborhoods in Tel Aviv. Having previously worked with John Pawson, I know and love his approach to design- especially with historical projects. After purchasing the building, I asked him to bring his minimalist interpretation to the classical monastery building, his creative process has been one of the most rewarding I have been involved with. His sensitivity to the incredible history manifests itself in his thoughtful design, introducing new life and purpose to the building. Having brought together such a superstar team for this project, all of whom dedicated great time and effort over the years, I am sure The Jaffa will quickly become a Tel Aviv icon.” Overlooking panoramic views of the 4,000-year-old Jaffa port, the Mediterannean Sea, and Tel Aviv city, The Jaffa offers 120 hotel rooms and suites, 32 luxury residences and a roster of impressive amenities.

  • Take My Camel: the Disappearing Camels of Jerusalem and Jaffa
    Take My Camel: “‘Take my camel, dear,’ said my Aunt Dot, as she climbed down from this animal on her The Disappearing return from High Mass,” is the once famous Camels of opening line of Rose Macaulay’s eccentric 1956 travel novel, The Towers of Trebizond.1 Jerusalem and Jaffa And the first-person narrator does take the Penny Johnson camel traveling from Trebizond (Trabzon) on the Black Sea all the way to Jerusalem, where she tethers the beast in the garden of Saint George’s church and hostel. This fictional cameus dromedarius is perhaps the last working camel – discounting a series of disconsolate camels offered for tourist photo ops on the Mount of Olives – to find his or her (sex never determined) way to the Holy City. Or is it? A few traces remain in Jerusalemites’ living memories. A distinguished historian, for example, was initially surprised by the subject of camels in Jerusalem but then remembered camels delivering heavy goods in the Old City 2 Mandate-era postcard of Jaffa. during his boyhood in the 1960s. A lawyer, Source: Library of Congress. in law school in Jerusalem in the 1940s, [ 28 ] Take My Camel: The Disappearing Camels of Jerusalem and Jaffa at first emphatically says: “there were no camels in Jerusalem.” But then, he recalls camels in the Valley of the Cross, below where the Israel Museum now stands.3 I will later speculate on the reasons for what I term the repressed camel memory syndrome. However, it is clear that camels begin to vanish not only from urban and rural landscapes in late Mandate Palestine, but out of Palestinian memory as well.
