A Fantastically well preserved Mosaic!
One of the most beautiful mosaics in Israel (and probably in the World as well).
Almost all the floor of this ancient synagogue is filled by mosaic and this one in its center.
Ask the attendant to show you the multimedia show, it is worth of our time and ou will know all about this synagogue.
Especially interesting for your kids.
Strongly recommended if you pass by this site.

Very nice old Jewish synagogue with a great story behind it. And an amazing old floor with famous biblical stories. The place also offers an English-speaking video with lights the full story presented in a dramatic and surprising way

The mosaic is really unique and beautiful.
Unfortunately, the admission price is too high. Even with the video explanation, you can spend less than 30 minutes.
The postcard selection in the gift shop was good.

15 minutes of film brought visitors to ancient times. A little аrchaeological site, but a big impression!

It's very nice, but small. It has huge importance to the jewish heritage in the area , but that one room, with that mediocre mosaic will be interesting for 30 minutes - at best. Not sure if it worth the trip, but if you're in the area, give it a try.

This was very interesting. Don't expect to see much. The only thing to see is the mosaic floor of the ancient synagogue. There is a movie that tells the story of building the synagogue. Different sections of the floor are highlighted to coordinate with the parts of the movie that explain what they are. The mosaic floor is awesome to see. I recommend visiting this ancient site

Exceptional example of VI century mosaic art . It is done in somewhat primitive stile, which distinguish is from more mature examples from other places. Accompanied by nice video that gives an artistic version of the story of creation of the mosaic (in Hebrew, English and Russian subtitles are available).
