Kfar Namhum Old Synagogue - Galil

Galil. The Sea of Galilee is a harp-shaped lake set in the sun-drenched Jordan Valley and framed by lush vegetation and imposing mountains. The character of the lake surface is ever changing, different at each hour. The Sea of Galilee is Israel's largest freshwater lake and is fed by underground springs, but mostly by the Jordan River. It lies 200 meters below sea level, and is the major source of fresh water for the whole of Israel. Fresh water, a warm climate, and fertile soil have made the lake shores a virtual paradise since ancient times, from prehistoric man to the first modern pioneers.
