View from Gadot
Lookout
According to Sima, the best tour guide in
Israel, this view overlooks Lebanon and was a Syrian bunker
prior its liberation by the Israelis in 1967. Eli Cohen, an Israeli spy, suggested the
planting of eucalyptus trees to keep the soldiers cool, but
in fact the trees marked the bunkers for the Israelis.
Depending on the current negotiations,
the Golan Heights may be returned to the Syrians.
