Mount Carmel is the place where Elijah contested and defeated the prophets of Baal by the power of God (1 Kings 18). There is a monastery at the top of the mountain. From the top, you get a panoramic view, and if you know the direction, you may see the Nazareth Ridge to the northeast, Mount Tabor and the Hill of Moreh to the east, and to the southeast, Mount Gilboa. Below Mount Carmel lies the plain of Jezreel. Recommended.
