Description

Caesarea is one of Israel’s most affluent community, but the adjacent national park offers some of the most exciting ruins in Israel. Built by Herod the Great at around 25 BC, the remains of the Caesarea Maritima port city include a the ruins of a hippodrome, a Roman theatre, an impressive collection of Crusader-era fortifications, a temple and an impressive aqueduct. It also offers an amazing view of the old harbour, which was once the largest on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean.
