Age of Caesarea is impressive - more than two thousand years, which, like the history of Israel, the quiet and calm can not be called. The city is conquered, then passed in the first centuries AD the Romans gave it under the control of Herod the Great. Since time immemorial, has survived many things: for example, the ancient theater, built by the great king, the ancient buildings inhabited by Roman procurators, the Palace on the reef with a swimming pool, Itstadion - an amphitheater with a hippodrome, where chariot races were conducted and the gladiatorial games . Incidentally, such fights can be seen now, but do not worry - this is more a theatrical performance, all gladiators remain alive! Besides, you still see the ancient statues, temples, ruins, Gothic churches, left here by the Crusaders, and all this directly overlooking the Mediterranean Sea! So immediately after the sightseeing tours you can take a look at one of beaches.
Antiquity gives way to modernity, and today these monuments of ancient history adjoin the golf course and luxury villas, which spend their leisure time are the richest people in the country. Incidentally, almost to the 50-ies, Caesarea was buried under the sands, and all her beauty was only known from the start of archaeological excavations. And over time, thanks to well-known Rothschild, the city was rebuilt - next to the ruins of the Crusader fortress rose hotels, restaurants and synagogues, and the sea shore of an abandoned fishing port turned into yachts, golden beaches and the famous diving club! Anyone can be trained and make an underwater stroll in the ancient port, or even see the wreck off the coast of an ancient ship.
And, of course, can not do without hospitable restaurants, famous for Israel! But hardly anywhere else you can taste a dish of some exotic goldfish directly surrounded by columns and ruins of Roman baths, or the cathedrals and fortifications Crusaders (at your option) - endless restaurants and bars are situated right in historic downtown amidst all these entertaining Antiquities.
