Israel tourism booms

Some 1.6 million people visited Israel between January and July,
according to figures released by the Tourism Ministry on Monday -- an
increase of 39 percent over the same period in 2009, and 10% more than
in 2008, the country's previous record year. The ministry figures also
showed record-breaking numbers for June, with 259,000 tourists
visiting in that month, an increase of 24% over June 2009 and 8% over
2008. Tourism Minister Stas Meseznikov said: The increase in incoming
tourism during the first half of this year should not be taken for
granted. It is the result of massive investment in marketing
activities around the world and against the background of the public
diplomacy challenges that Israel is facing."

Increasingly people, and not just Jews or religious Christians (or others) are coming to visit Israel. A land of diversity.

Jews, Arabs, Beduin, Druze, Circassians.

Beaches, deserts, farms, green fields, mountains, snow.

Liberal 24h cities (Tel Aviv)

classic cities (Jerusalem, Jaffa, Haifa)

Brand New cities

Very old old

Worldwide foods from all cultures - Humous, Falafel, mcdonalds

Tax free holiday city (Eilat)

Everything you want... is in Israel.

One thing I like about Israel state is that if you have a British or American passport you'll be safe on Israel land or Saudi Arabia, but Iran and other nations, best stay clear of if you hold a UK or US passport.

My friend in Israel knows more about western metal bands from the UK then I know myself! They seem very westernised in Israel & very pro-US & UK. But the US built much of Israel up & heavily protects this state. It's an important location & they have great military strength to admire. So many nations slam the UK, US & Israel, but yet want to visit.

[lilyeve222]

And there's so many comments slamming Israel here, the tourism has boomed here enormously & Israel supports the US & UK & Western way of life against the muslim nations.

[lilyeve222]

Country looks amazing, very Americanised, but it's the USA which really built up Israel, it's like the 51st state of America, some say the UK is the 51st state. I buy sea salts from the dead sea in the UK sold here & they are really therapeutic & healing. I have a real cool friend from Israel who hates religion like me & my friends & he showed me his holiday pics in Israel where he was just hanging out at real cool venues, beaches, parties, with his white friends in western clothes, it's cool.
