Show Notes

 The "chaggim" period (holidays) continue  in Israel. We are in between Yom Kipper and Sukkot. In this episode, we introduce you to one of Israel's hidden gems, Akko. Akko is an authentic medieval walled city filled with history, culture, beauty and unexpected delights  on the Western Galilee coast. Not surprisingly, Akko is one of UNESCO's World Heritage sites because of the Ottoman city in plain site and the Crusader city hidden below.
