Two images of modern Nazareth taken from a recreated 1st century village within the city:





These give a slight "feel" for the terrain there, which is quite mountainous (or hilly depending upon where you're from).

The following website has images from the YMCA 1st century recreation in Nazareth that I visited (and at which the above images were taken) and gives some information about it. I'm only offering it for its information on the place I visited and for its images of the "village" and the city.

This is the website of the place I visited in Nazareth. Check out the photo gallery among other areas of the website.

Thanks! It certainly does look like there is at least one hill steep enough to be considered a 'cliff'. I sure wouldn't want to be thrown down it, even though such a rolling fall might not be fatal.

Hey, thanks for the link! Loved it, and now I have 100% more knowledge
of the landscape, than I had 10 minutes ago.
