The modern State of Israel was born in 1948 but it is its rich past that draws people from all over the world to holiday in Israel. This tiny little country is situated in the Middle East, borders with Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Egypt, and rests on the beautiful Mediterranean Sea. What Israel lacks in size it makes up for in diversity and on any holiday to Israel one cannot help but be truly amazed by the varying landscapes, cultures and climates that exist in such small yet beautiful country.
