One day,
sixteen

Four graves in the Upper Galilee. The people buried in them lived between the first century and the sixteenth — and you meet them out of order.

Times are the organiser's. Tap any stop for the full story.
You climb a mountain, then drive below the sea
Meron is the highest point in Israel inside the Green Line. Teveria is the lowest city in the country. You do both between lunch and mincha.
Halachic times for the day
Calculated for 32°57′N 35°29′E (Tzfat) via Hebcal. Meron, Amuka and Tiberias differ by under two minutes. Confirm with your own luach before relying on these.
Nine lives
In driving order you go 1st century → 2nd → 16th → 12th. Here they are in the order they actually lived.
Who was alive when
Pull the handle. Watch the gap between Rabbi Meir and the Rambam go by — nine hundred years in one thumb-swipe.
