'Little Rome' in Beit Guvrin, Israel
Standing atop this tall hill gives one the impression of greatness. It feels as if the person who ruled over this Roman city would have lived here. You can see the entire city and everything that’s going on, and you don’t even have to leave your house.
This city was built thousands of years ago, but still employed very progressive ideas. There was an ampitheater for pleasure and a public bathroom with a good waste management system in place! When I got down on my knees to inspect the millenia-old bathrooms, my brother simulated how a person would use the bathroom, however he did it directly over me, causing everyone in our tour group to laugh.
