Acco

On Sunday I went to Acco, a country notrth of Haifa. It is a multi-cultural city with many different religions. We went to an Arab market where we saw different spices and meats. We then went to a mosque. We went in and somebody spoke to us about the Muslim religion, we got to see where they pray and heard the call to prayer. We then went to have lunch. After this we went to the Behai Gardens. They are amazing, beautiful gardens in gardens of the founder of the religion, under two hundred years ago. We had another talk about their religion and found out that they believe that you can be any religion as long as you believe in one god. And you help people.
It was a bit like hippies but not as tipsy.
