Language Russian

The Gardens of Immortality (Ganey Elmona) are located in the village of Julis. This place resembles paradise. Najee Abbas and his family created the garden to immortalize the memory of their parents, Muna and Rashid.

People come here to relax and escape the noise and hustle of everyday life, to unwind in a beautiful and pleasant environment surrounded by an array of flowers, listening to the birds singing and the sound of flowing water. You can wander through the garden like in a magical labyrinth, sit on one of the whimsical benches or woven chairs, and sway on equally whimsical swings.

Visitors come here to take thousands of photos and take a piece of paradise with them.

We will also get acquainted with the village of Julis itself. It is named in honor of Julius Caesar and is sometimes referred to as the "Druze Vatican" because Amin Tarif, the spiritual leader of the Druze, lived there.

Our next stop is the village of Yarka. This Druze village is famous for its large shopping center, where the spirit of Christmas and New Year prevails. It hosts a New Year's fair with beautifully decorated Christmas trees, garlands, ornaments, and balloons. It is definitely worth seeing, and it will surely bring you into the festive mood.
