Visit the Menorah Caves Complex and the Most Moving Exhibit in the Valley: The Journey of the Menorah at Beit She'arim
Even the most cynical will have to admit it's moving. Sometimes, well-known symbols hold many forgotten layers. Winter is the perfect time to visit the Beit She'arim National Park, discover the Menorah Caves complex, and especially be moved by the audiovisual show that tells the story of the menorah from the days of the Temple to its becoming the symbol of the state. These caves were discovered in the 1930s and they feature magnificent reliefs of the seven-branched menorah, telling the stories of many Jews who came to be buried at Beit She'arim. The show itself is presented in the water cistern that was used as a Haganah hideout. Already mentioned symbolism?
