Nachal Amal/Asi River

Located in the northern part of Israel is a beautiful river that's fed by a series of nearby springs.

The river early in the morning

We entered a newly-opened beach first thing in the morning, but it quickly filled up with people.

The water is crystal clear

The river runs through Nir David, a Kibbutz founded in 1936 (as Tel Amal).

Looking toward the Kibbutz

It's been named one of the world's most beautiful gardens by Time magazine.

This is the same river that feeds the nearby Gan Hashlosha/Sachne.

Here's some of our favorite photos from the river on the Kibbutz.
