Caesarea!
These are the remains of the ancient city of Caesarea built under King Herod
and 22BC. It became the provincial
capital of Roman Judea and abandoned
during the muslim conquest and 640.
This was the hippodrome, where they had the chariot racing. This was discovered 200 years ago
imagine 125,000
people living in this city
during the time of King Herod. In fact
the aqueduct still remains which brought
water from Mount Carmel.
So when the Romans came here, they built palaces and
they also built swimming pools they had
a cistern under and that's a real swimming pool.
