We visited the modern day area of Banias. This Nature Reserve area is referred to in the Bible as Caesarea Philippi and is the place where Jesus took his disciples for a "retreat" and discussed with them who the general public thought Jesus was. This is where Peter confessed that Jesus was the Messiah, the Son of God. The area is so lush and beautiful. We saw a wild boar in the bushes while hiking. This is one of the headwaters of the Jordan River.
Well, no wonder Jesus kept coming back to Caesarea Philippi. It is beautiful.
