Not far from the hotel strip of Herzliya, on the northern end of Herzliya Pituach, lay remnants that put together much of the history of the land of Israel in the past 2,500 years. When you stand on the cliff, you may watch the sun absorbed into the blue-turquoise water of the Mediterranean Sea, and observe the seagulls improving their aerodynamic abilities, gliding on the afternoon winds. It is easy to understand then, why so many people, throughout the history, wanted this place to be theirs.
