Timna Park
We went on a trip to Timna Park and it was incredible! I highly recommend a visit to anyone traveling in this region. There are various hiking and jeep trails. We did an awesome hiking trail that explored areas where the Egyptians began copper mining 6,000 years ago!!!
We sat in the entrance to this mine shaft and our guide David explained the ancient techniques of digging for copper, and of course it was completely fascinating.
And then we crawled through that amazing tunnel system!
Efrat and Deedee:
Here I am crawling out of the end of the shaft:
And later on in the day we went to go see Solomon's Pillars...absolutely majestic!
