High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Palestine Park is located on the grounds of Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, New York. The park is a scale model of the Holy Land, including cities, hills, rivers, and seas in approximately correct geographical location. Palestine Park is laid out along the southwestern side of Chautauqua Lake, which takes the place of the Mediterranean Sea. This creates a 'mirror-image' of the actual land, which is on the east coast of the Mediterranean. A large mound of stones represents Mount Hermon, with an artificial stream representing the Jordan River as it flows south from the Sea of Galilee to the Dead Sea. Small hills represent biblical landmarks such as Mount Tabor and the Mount of Olives, with markers representing sites of biblical significance including Jacob's Well, Jericho, Bethsaida and a scale model of Jerusalem in the time of Jesus complete with a small replica of the ancient Jewish Temple.
