    • Start with the Old City of Acre. The history of Akko was shaped by the Phoenicians, Romans, Umayyads, Templars, Ayyubids, and Ottomans, so it's a truly unique place in Israel. The Old City is also well preserved, so it's no wonder Akko is on the World Heritage Site list.
    • Next, head to the Acre Old City Market. The white market was established during the 18th century. The building remained a remnant of the glorious history of the Ottoman Empire. 
    • Visit the Templars’ Tunnel, one of the fascinating places in Akko. It's not only a regular tourist attraction but also an impressive piece of engineering.
    • Continue to Turkish Hammam. It's a relatively small museum with a few rooms, each with a different purpose portraying the scenes from the daily routine.
    • See the Al-Jazzar Mosque, one of the most famous buildings in Old Akko. It dominates the city’s skyline, and Its green dome is seen from afar. It is the largest mosque in the country outside of Jerusalem.
    • Explore Khan al-Umdan. The Al Umdan Caravansarai is adjacent to the Clock Tower and the port. It is the largest Khan in Israel and the most preserved of them. 
    • Marvel at the beautiful St. George Church. The Greek Orthodox Church is the first Christian place of worship established in Akko during the Ottoman period.
    • Lastly, go to the Bahai House. Acre is very important in the Baha’i religion tradition; Baháu’lláh, the founder of the Bahai, was imprisoned in Akko and spent years in house arrest after his release from prison.
