The interior of this ancient house of worship, which resembles that of other Galilean synagogues of the Talmudic period (3rd to 8th centuries AD), is less well preserved than the impressive exterior. Rows of pillars in the prayer hall apparently served as supports for the ceiling, and the building may have had a second story. A section of the facade's lintel, now in the Louvre in Paris, contains the Hebrew inscription "May there be peace in this place, and in all the places of Israel. This lintel was made by Jose the Levite. Blessings upon his works. Shalom." Allow at least an hour to wander around or bring a picnic and enjoy it on one of the tables.
A variety of workshops are offered at the factory of the budding artisanal Buza Ice Cream chain. The project is an Arab--Jewish partnership between Alaa Sweetat and Adam Ziv, both Galilean locals, and celebrates the produce of the region. It's also worth coming just to savor tastings from the adjacent shop, including cardamom- or chocolate-flavored specialty cones filled with seasonal sorbets and ice creams. Reservations are required for the workshops.
Producing more than 15 blends and varietals in a yearly production of one million bottles, this is one of Israel's largest wineries. The tour in the modern, well-designed visitor center begins with an overview map of the six Upper Galilee vineyards, continues with a look at the modern press and stainless-steel storage tanks, and then moves to the tasting room for a sampling of whites, a rosé, and reds. End the tour on the balcony with its panoramic view of vineyards and hills.
