• The impressive Roman city established by King Herod 2000 years ago, located on the scenic Mediterranean coastline, is remarkable. The theater, Herod's Palace, the remnants of the large port, and the crusader fortifications are significant archaeological treasures. Here, you can experience life as a Roman citizen for a day. Engage in opera singing at the theater, converse with ancient statues about philosophy, race in the hippodrome, swim in the Roman bathhouse, and utilize the public latrine. Bread and Circuses were integral to the Roman Empire, so observe where gladiators battled wild animals, where chariot races occurred, and where both comedies and tragedies were performed – visit the legacy of the renowned builder, King Herod, and see the city that housed temples, palaces, and the largest port in the Middle East. • The historic port of Caesarea, a remarkable engineering achievement from the era of Herod the Great. Today, it serves as an historical site showcasing technology that reflects its construction 2000 years ago. • A newly restored large Roman-Byzantine mosaic featuring various animals, particularly highlighting 120 distinct birds such as peacocks, storks, pelicans, herons, pheasants, blue porphyry, ducks, flamingos, pearls, ostriches, and partridges.
