Israel

The State of Israel is a parliamentary democracy, located in Southwest Asia, on the eastern edge of the Mediterranean Sea. Formed in 1948 by the partition of Palestine, Israel was invaded the day after its establishment by Arab armies; since then it has fought several wars with neighbouring Arab states. #israel #asia #travel #state #food #history #religion

Geography

It is a country whose exact territorial boundaries and borders are widely disputed. The territory Israel controls, including the West Bank and Gaza Strip, borders the states of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Egypt. Israel shares the coastlines of the Mediterranean, the Gulf of Aqaba, and the Dead Sea. #deadsea #sea #israel

Economy

Israel has a technologically advanced market economy with substantial government participation. It depends on imports of fossil fuels, grains, beef, raw materials, and military equipment. Despite limited natural resources, Israel has intensively developed its agricultural and industrial sectors over the past 20 years. #economy #israel #technology

Products

Israel is largely self-sufficient in food production except for grains and beef. Diamonds, high-technology, military equipment, software, pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and agricultural products (fruits, vegetables, and flowers) are leading exports. Israel usually posts sizable current account deficits, which are covered by large transfer payments from abroad and by foreign loans. Israel possesses extensive facilities for oil refining, diamond polishing, and semiconductor fabrication.

Jerusalem

In spite of its security problems, Israel has a substantial tourist industry, mainly because of its climate, beaches, and the presence of important historical sites, many of them of religious significance. In 2012 Israel’s 8 million people played host to over 3.5 million tourists from all over the world. The most visited city is Jerusalem, a city holy to three religions, Judaism, Islam and Christianity. #tourist #beaches #history #religion #jerusalem #judaism #islam #christianity

Masada

However the single most visited site in Israel is not in Jerusalem, but on the top of an isolated rock 400m (1,300 ft) high on the edge of the Judaean Desert and overlooking the Dead Sea. This is the ancient fortress of Masada, scene of a mass suicide of 960 Jewish rebels and their families during the occupation by the Romans. #desert #judaean #deadsea #masada

Tel Aviv

For those who like nightlife, Israel’s second largest city, Tel Aviv, ‘the city that never sleeps’ is the place to go. Also being on the beach, Tel Aviv attracts nearly 3 million tourists a year, some coming to see the UNESCO world Heritage Area of Bauhaus architecture. A final thought: Israel is a geographically small country to visit; the distance from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv is only around 64 km (39 miles) and even Eilat in the far south is only 284 km (153 miles) from the capital city. #nightlife #telaviv #tlv #neversleep #beach
