This is a multi-cache which will take you touring around central Israel, looking for central and old synagogues.
Posted coordinates are at the great synagogue of Ramat Gan. In order to reach final location, you are required to visit unknown number of virtual stations with unknown overall distance between them, in multiple cities. There will be several stages / checkers to go through.
Disclaimer: This adventure is not for everyone! Only the true believer, a serious geocaching devotee with strong faith will prevail.
This is a spiritual cache. Just like synagogues and any places of worship are magnets for people seeking something in life greater than the mundane, a contact with the divine perhaps, so is this cache. i mean.. a magnetÂ
 So if you feel disappointed after completing a difficult cache and finding a magnet in the end, this cache is not for you.
Â
Clues to be found are outside the synagogues (one is inside courtyard but doable even outside opening hours). Although it is not mandatory, you are encouraged to go inside the holy places when possible, or get a peek from a window, and learn more about the place online or on site.
Please don't post any spoilers of places. You can add indoor photos within the synagogues.
