Ein Gedi Botanical Gardens
The Botanical Garden in the Ein Gedi Kibbutz is the only botanical garden in the world that integrates residential buildings within it. The stunning garden is home to over 800 rare species of trees, shrubs and flowers from all over the globe. Plants mentioned in the Bible such as Myrrh and Frankincense feature alongside rare trees, tropical plants, palm trees, fruit trees, cacti and local plants.
One can visit this heavenly garden every day of the year except Yom Kippur and enjoy a guided tour (free for guests of the “Country Hotel”). The minimal entrance fee includes a short film about the settlement and information on the vegetation.

Hello reader. My name is Charlotte Noris and I am sure that you will definitely enjoy my blog. Do you know why? All because on the pages you will see bright and colorful photos, as well as useful information. My husband and I are freelancers, so we can travel at any time of the year.
For myself, I most often plan tours in advance, but it also happens that the trip turns out to be spontaneous when I see an interesting place and a nice price. At the age of 35, I have visited more than 30 countries and do not plan to stop there. I want to visit all continents and the most secret corners of our planet.
