Um Qeis (Gadara)

On a plateau overlooking the north Jordan Valley and the glinting blue waters of Lake Tiberias are the ruins of Qais, ancient Roman Gadara. Although not as extensive as the other cities of the Roman League of the Decapolis (the “Ten Cities”). Already uncovered are the ruins of three theatres, a temple, a colonnaded street and an aqueduct. Archaeologists predict that when excavations are complete, a major city will have been uncovered. Standing atop the largest of the theatres, one has an excellent view of Lake Tiberias (Sea of Galille), northern Palestine and the Golan Heights.

It was in Gadara that Jesus vanquished demonic spirits into the sea far below. Gadara was also the home and birthplace of many Roman writers and philosophers who were inspired by the beauty of the panoramic views that spread out all around them. They enjoyed, as people do today, the hot water springs that bubble up in the nearby village of Hemmeh
