Photos from the Sea of Galilee (Kinneret)




At the promenade in Tiberias. The monument is built in the shape of the Kinneret and also shows the sea level. Israel has been facing a severe water problem for the past couple of years, as there is not enough rain during the winter periods.

  1. Thanks for sharing.

    The shape of the Kinneret parallels the shape of Eretz Yisrael, doesn't it?

    I have never heard that the shape of the Kinneret has anything to do with the shape of Israel. People rather recognize in it the shape of a harp.
