This new series is a throwback to the game, “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?” I will give a brief description of a place, including its latitude and longitude and several “interesting” facts about the location. I will also try to include a picture or two from my visit to the place. You, the reader, can then hazard a guess to answer the question posed in the game.

I will reveal the correct location on the following day. Hopefully, this type of post will encourage interaction and perhaps stimulate comments. Good Luck!

The answer to yesterday’s place (#338) is Jericho, Israel

This place is known as the “pearl” of its region. It is located at the intersection of the three arms of a Y-shaped lake and has glorious views of the surrounding mountains.

It is characterized by a flower-bedecked lakefront promenade.

The town’s streets are narrow and posh, lined with numerous shops and restaurants which attest to the region’s popularity as a tourist destination.
