Surprisingly diverse for such a narrow strip of land pressed against the Mediterranean, modern Israel only dates back to 1948, though the history of this "Holy Land" spans many millennia. The big three monotheistic religions of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam continue to maintain extremely strong ties to this part of the world, so you can expect to see plenty of historic churches, mosques, and synagogues. Beyond the undeniable cultural appeal, Israel also offers impressive natural features, including the Dead Sea and Makhtesh Ramon, one of the world's biggest craters. It is easy to find yourself following in the footsteps of figures that helped shape the world thousands of years ago
