Hamat Gader - Hot Springs - Parrot Show - Aligator Park - Roman Antiquities

One of the most beautiful and popular health retreats in the Roman Empire was in Hamat Gader on the southern ascent to the Golan Heights.

Today you can see the remains of the incredible Roman Baths and an ancient amphitheatre.

There are modern hot springs and mineral baths fed by underwater springs at temperatures over 40 degrees celcius. There are no separate bathing facilities, however in the winter until Shabbat HaGadol, there is "men only" night on Thursday nights until 2am.

Even if you don't use the Hot Springs or fresh water pool, there is a lot to see and do.

We watched the family-friendly parrot show, then took a stroll through the alligator park and petting zoo. There are lovely grounds for a picnic near the ancient Roman ruins.

It's only 20 minutes from our Zimmers at Villa Rimona in Yavne'el. Watch our playlist of other sights in the area. Or call (USA) 718-717-2192 or (ISRAEL) 077-419-9001 for more info or to reserve a Zimmer. www.VillaRimona.com
