From Jerusalem I moved to Galilee. I just liked the way the word sounds. Jesus once walked here (on the water), gathered his first disciples in the fishing villages and worked miracles, in memory of which the shores of the lake and the surrounding hills were built up with temples.
Lake Kinneret (aka Genisaret)
lake, Tiberian or Sea of Galilee) is the largest lake in Israel and a resort place.
"Is it possible to swim here?" I asked the locals. I might as well ask if you can drink methyl alcohol. "You can," they replied. "You'll just go blind." Recently, due to the presence of some kind of bacteria in the water, there have been several cases of visual impairment in swimmers. In general, I did not dare to swim. Ride on a boat.
