Israel

Israel might not be number 1 of tourist destination. The main reason is because of the war with its neighbour country, Palestine. However, Israel is "one of a kind". In my experience, it is one of the most beautiful country that I have ever been. Unlike another country, the tourists come here not for the shopping centres or attraction parks, but they come to see the churches or mosque. Furthermore, many people call Israel as "a magic street" because we can find dates tree everywhere and they are so sweet!
                                                                     
                  
Furthermore, the local people are so friendly here. They are so proud of their bread or "pita". It has soft texture and plain flavour. Usually, people eat pita with falafel or patty made from ground chickpeas.

As we all know, tourists all over the world come to Israel because of its churches. We can find the most popular churches here. For example, "Place of Crucifixion". Christian people believe that long time ago, the soldiers crucified the Christ here. Another example is "The Edicule" where they locate the Christ's tomb. They have been there since ages ago but the interesting fact is they look more beautiful than the churches these days.

Simultaneously, Israel has strong cultures which comes from the religion and background. The largest impact is from Jewish. One of the most popular culture of Israel is "Dancing the Hora". It can be perform by children or adults. Secondly, the festival that has been known internationally is "The Bar Mitzvah". The Jewish father prepare a meal festive for their 13 year old son. In this country, they see 13 years old as an adult and they must be responsible for their own action, such as they can fulfil the mitzvot or commandment.
