Claim: Overlooking the Sea of Galilee, Amirim has guesthouses, restuarants, and a sculpture garden.
Evidence: Located 650 metres above sea level on a hill overlooking the Sea of Galilee, it embraces organic farming and vegetarianism. The moshav runs guesthouses and restaurants featuring vegetarian and vegan food. The moshav has been noted for its sculpture garden, which features sculptures donated by the Israel Museum, as well as for its music. Amirim, an Israeli vegetarian moshav (village), was founded in 1958. The founders of Amirim were motivated to create a vegetarian village because of their love for animals and concern for animal rights, as well as for health reasons. Both religious and non-religious families live at Amirim.
