Green Israel

Israel is a small yet diverse Middle Eastern country with a long coastline on the eastern Mediterranean Sea
and a small window on the Red Sea at the Gulf of Eilat 

Within its small perimeter, Israel packs in abundant riches, from cherished religious sites and plentiful archaeological treasures to spectacular natural wonders.

The Israel seasons are different from those in the United States and western Europe. 

Basically there are two seasons: winter which is cool to cold and when the rains occur; and summer  which is warm to hot and virtually rain-free. 

By late March, the flowers and the green will have faded. 

During February and the beginning of March, the entire country seems to turn green from the winter rains, and wildflower displays in the Galilee and the Golan regions are truly spectacular.

In spring and autumn the temperature is near-perfect every day and nearly all days are sunny (the ancient Jewish pilgrimage holidays were scheduled in autumn and spring to take advantage of this weather).

Many tourists visit Israel in the summer, which is unfortunate. Summer in Israel is very hot, the coastal areas are humid as well as hot, and the landscapes are parched brown since it never rains in summer. 

The Israeli winter doesn't normally involve snow, except for Mount Hermon on the Golan Heights.
