Travel in Acre Acre, or Akko is one of the most dramatic and captivating of Israel's cities. Within its walls are labyrinthine networks of alleys and streets filled with life. A walk along the walls offers a spectacular view of Mount Carmel and Haifa, Galilee and the old city. The citadel museum of heroism, built on top of the crusader foundations, commemorates the Jewish freedom fighters imprisoned by the British. Layers of diverse cultures peer through the ancient walls of a subterranean complex, which was excavated in the 1950'S. It is one of the most ancient cities in the world.
On the Acre-Nahariya Highway, you can see the underground Crusader city, Knights' Halls, the ancient port, many museums, the Aljazar Mosque, and the Bahai Shrine and Gardens.
