Israel Palestine Religion Christianity Sea of Galilee

Seagulls and birds surround a wooden boat carrying pilgrims, sailing towards the pier in Ginosar, in the Sea of Galilee, northern Israel, on March 9, 2019. The wooden boat is a replica of the kind of boat that is estimated to have played a key role in Jesus’ life in the Galilee. An ancient Galilee fishing boat from the 1st century AD was discovered in 1986 on the north-west shore of the Sea of Galilee, near Kibbutz Ginosar, where the restored boat is displayed in a special museum today.
