Mount Naum is over looking the Sea of Galilee. Further to Christian tradition, the Mount of Beatitudes is the place where Jesus held one of his most important sermons (on the mountain; Mt 5Lk 6:20) to the people who gathered to listen to him.

This sermon contains nine verses, each starting with “Blessed is the…” …Latin translation gave the hill its name – Beati-tudes.
The site, today, offers a Roman Catholic Franciscan church, monastery, hostel, gardens, farm and a visitor’s center.

The Church is a remarkable building surrounded with beautiful gardens; overlooking the Sea of Galilee.
The feeling while visiting is not only of aesthetics and beauty but also of being surrounded by the various Christian traditional sites.
