You can check the original Wikivoyage article Here

    Karmiel, or Carmiel, is a city in the Lower Galilee region of northern Israel.

    Founded in 1964, it is lacking in historic sites, and generally not of interest to tourists. Some people use it as a starting point for hikes in the surrounding hills.

    Karmiel's population is 45,000. It has absorbed many waves of immigration, and about 30% of the residents are immigrants from the former USSR.

    The city is located 250 meters above sea level and surrounded by scenic hills.
