Israel is filled with historic locations, religious monuments, scenic landscapes, and the Mediterranean coastline. First-time visitors to this Middle Eastern country shouldn’t miss these attractions.

The Dead Sea: Known for being the lowest point on Earth and extremely salty, this mineral-rich lake is a natural wonder. You can’t sink so lie on your back and float all day in the warm soothing water!

Old City in Jerusalem: This must-visit walled city is home to many iconic religous locations like the Tower of David, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Dome of Rock, and the renowned Israel Museum.

Bethlehem: This Palestinian town is a favorite of both casual visitors and pilgrims. Make sure to visit the Basilica of the Nativity and the many Byzantine churches, monasteries, and ruins.

Street food is the best representation of Israeli culinary tradition. If you’re planning a trip soon, be sure to come hungry.

Falafel: Made with chickpeas, onions, garlic, and herb butter, this deep-fried Israeli dish is commonly stuffed into pita bread with plenty of tahini sauce, pickles, and salad.

Hummus: Start your day with a fresh pita or sandwich dipped in this savory Middle Eastern chickpea spread. It will add a distinct and rich flavor to any breakfast, lunch, or snack!

Baklava: Nothing compares to the aroma, flavor, and texture of this layered pastry dessert, which is filled with nuts and sweetened with syrup or honey.

Any time you visit Israel will be great and the best season for your trip will depend on whether you’re joining a pilgrimage, looking for local festivals or wanting to sightsee with fewer crowds.

March, April, and May: Spring in Israel is full of blooming flowers, warm days, and cool nights. It’s also the perfect time to soak in Israel’s natural hot springs, such as Hamat Gader and Hamei Tiveria.

October and November: To enjoy beautiful weather, fewer tourists, and lower prices, you might want to plan your trip to Israel in the fall. Also, don’t forget to attend the Jewish New Year celebrations this time of year!

December, January, and February: Israel comes to life during these months with many celebrations and festivities, including Hanukkah, the Jewish Film Festival, and the Hamshushalayim Winter Festival.

When traveling to Israel, you are entering “The Holy Land,” so pack carefully for the time of year, the sites, and the activities you hope to enjoy.

Scarf: This will be important while you visit sacred places and may need to cover your shoulders or head. It’s also great to dress-up any outfit.

Sun Protection: Sunscreen, sunglasses, and hats are a must as the Israeli sun is strong all year long!

Comfy Footwear: Whether you plan to go sightseeing, enter churches, or spend time at the beach on the hot sand, a pair of flats, flip-flops, or sandals will be the best choice.
