Israel Marathon

10 January 2008

Taking place each year in Tiberius, the Israel Marathon invites Israeli and foreign athletes to participate in this annual sporting event.  The 12K route offers a beautiful view of the surrounding area of the Sea of Galilee and the mountain area surrounding it.  So besides a marathon, you can also enjoy some of the most beautiful views in Israel. http://www.tiberias-marathon.co.il/en

Public Tree holiday (Tu Bishvat)

22 January 2008
Once a year the Jewish calendar gives respect to trees, plants, flowers etc.  It is the day to bless all which is green and grows.  Children have special outings, in which they plant trees in a forest and sing the holiday's sing-along. Adults mostly stuff themselves with some dried fruits, which are also a distinctive holiday symbol, but nothing much more than that.  It's not a very important holiday so you might not even notice it, only the piles of dried fruits stacking up in the Supermarket on this day might seem odd.

    Irish Festival

    Tibirius Marathon
    30 January-2 February 2008
     
    For four days the Tel Aviv Cinematheque offers an Irish festival with Irish folk music, performances and of course beer. 
    For more detailed information call Tel Aviv Cinematheque: (03) 606-0819.
