Acre, Ancient harbor city in northern Israel.
The coastal city features medieval walls, fortifications, and underground passages along the Mediterranean Sea, forming a strategic defensive position.
In 1291, the city marked the end of Crusader control when Mamluk forces captured the last Christian stronghold in the Holy Land.
The market streets display a combination of Jewish, Muslim, and Christian influences through architecture, traditional foods, and local craftwork.
Regular train connections from Tel Aviv and Haifa bring visitors to the Old City district, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
Within the underground tunnels of the Knights Hospitaller compound, visitors can walk through preserved medieval halls that once housed military orders.
