Nimrod Fortress (National Park)Like most old things, this one has changed hands a few times. It was built by the Crusaders, then taken over by the Muslims of Damascus and actually used to defend against the Crusaders. ("Joe, I told you not to build the walls so high! Now we can't get back in!") More info
The Fortress at SunsetHigh up on Mt. Hermon, looking over the valley. Beautiful way to end a day.
When I went to the College of Engineering and Mines this isn't what I had in mind....

Way up north, we can see signs of past conflicts.
Hmmm... I think I'll stick to the other side of the road .
