Beit She’an is a small and welcoming city located in the southern Galilee, along the Jordan River Valley. This diverse local community is well known for its warmth, hospitality, and familial atmosphere. With a population of immigrants from North Africa, the Middle East, the Former Soviet Union, and Ethiopia, Masa Israel Teaching Fellows in Beit She’an have the unique opportunity to experience a variety of cultures and Jewish traditions. The breathtaking scenery creates beautiful opportunities for Fellows to hike along the many springs that flow in the nearby valley. One of the biggest attractions in the area, Gan Hashelosha or The Sachne, was named one of the 20 most beautiful sites in the world by Time Magazine, and features natural hot springs that are warm enough to swim in all year. Furthermore, Beit She’an National Park features some of the country’s most significant archaeological finds, dating back to the Bronze Age. Masa Israel Teaching Fellows in Beit She’an receive additional programming benefits and volunteering opportunities courtesy of the Jewish Federation of Cleveland and their longstanding relationship with their sister city.
