    For those interested in history and religion, visiting the Galilee is an unparalleled chance to walk in the footsteps of Jesus, who is said to have lived, preached and performed some of his famous miracles here. But you do not have to be a pilgrim to soak up the serenity of the Mount of Beatitudes (pictured), explore the ruins of Capernaum or take in the breathtaking views from Mt Tabor. (Hanan Isachar/LPI)
