Great site, lots to see. If they put in a rest room, the site would be perfect; it needs one!

This site is really well done. I heard that when they finish it up theyll be charging admission, but for now its free. A highlight to not miss is the couple of viewports they have in signs that let you visualize what the gate and fortifications looked like.

It is a dramatic mound.A simbol for modern sosciety. I bet they thought they will never be defeated. 2000 years had passed over. I got there early so the weather was superb. Now adays the ruler of a distant, eastern kingdom threatens to destroy this place, but I feel a lot of pride and confidence in humanity to allow my children to thrive under the same sun.

Very cool Tel. One of my favorites. Was very cool to see the strategy it took to invade it while being up so high.

Ancient Tel dating back to the days of Hezekiah. Absolutely fascinating. Really neat display set up showing all the kings of Judah & the length of their reign. Beautiful views across Israels southern valleys.

The remains of an important ancient city from the time of the first temple. Now you cant see to much, but if you do your homework beforehand, it can be really interesting.

In case you are looking for very ancient place with really interesting history and breath taking view this place is for you.First settlement here is known from around 6 thousand years BC. High hill, which is remains of a big fort and important ancient Lahish city with easy approach, so it is suitable for families with small children. At the top of the hill you will find some bans with explanations regarding , history of the place and all Hebrew kings, in addition a wonderful view all around.

Tel-Lachish takes only a hour and a half to travel up, down and around. The view from the top is magnificent. The archaeology is there but not too obvious. The story is very interesting. A good place for a picnic, a short walk and some ancient history lessons.

This is a great site! Really fascinating and has been fixed up nicely lately with signs and soon there will be bathrooms. Visitor center and a video at the entrance. When the center opens they will start charging an entrance fee, until then its still free (October 18).

Probably one of the most important archaeological sites in this area of Israel. Its well worth the visit, but you might want to wait at least a year or so because they are opening a new Visitor Center. Once the new Visitor Center is completed and all of the Restorations are done this will be a truly amazing site.

The place is going through maintenance, which fDoes not prevent visiting. Many signs in Hebrew, English, and Arabic explaining the history and the findings were added recently. One can imagine the stress the defenders felt, watching the surrounding cities being concoured one after another, knowing its their own faith they are watching.

There is nothing to do here! You can climb up and watch the near view but that is about it.Better to find a different location to visit.

Lachish was the biggest city in the kingdom of Judah after Jerusalem, yet fiercly destroyed by Sennacherib in 701 BCE.Dramatic evidence of the 2700 year old battle can still be seen at the site, and with good guidance, a tour to the site can be one of the most exciting experiences in Israel!
