"Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven"

This is Mount Tabor, located in Lower Galilee, at the eastern end of the Jezreel Valley, 11 miles (17 km) west of the Sea of Galilee. Its elevation at the summit is 1,843 feet (575 m) above sea level. It is believed by many to be the site of the Transfiguration of Christ and site for the battle between Barak and the army of Jabin, commanded by Sisera.

It is also known as Har Tavor, Itabyrium, Jebel et-Tur, and the Mount of Transfiguration.

Aerial view of the Church of Transfiguration at the summit.Three Arab villages are at the bottom of the mount - Shibli (east), Umm Al-Ghanam (south east) and Daburiyya (west).

The stairway are their for the Paragliders how use to jump from this ramp into the Jezreel Valley down below.

Hello Assi,
I've been looking at your portfolio here, at TE and I must admin it's amazing. This picture convinced me to visit Israel as soon as possible.
Great picture, thank you.

Jarek.
