The Agmon Hahula (literally: the small lake of Hula) is an artificial lake in the valley of the River Jordan in northern Israel, north of the Knerret (Sea of Galilee).
Each Autumn, the Lake has an official ceremony to welcome the wintering cranes, of which there were 80,000 in 2004.
In 2005, the 'Folding Together' project was invited to participate in the ceremony, inspired by the importance of the crane both to the Lake and the Project.

 Dead Sea holiday destination
The first such prehistoric lake with a name is called "Lake Samra." Lake Samra was a freshwater or brackish lake that extended at least fifty miles south of the current southern end of the Dead Sea and sixty miles north, well above the present Hahula LakeHula Depression.
Along the southeastern side of the lake is a 700' tall halite formatation called "Mount Sedom." ==Chemistry and health effects== Until the winter of 1978-1979, the Dead Sea was composed of two stratified layers of water that differed in temperature, density, age, and salinity.
Comparison between the chemical composition of the Dead Sea to other lakes and oceans show that the salt's concentration in the Dead Sea is 31.5% (the salinity fluctuates somewhat).

Though initially perceived as a great national achievement for Israel, with time it became evident that the benefits from transforming the "wasteland" of Lake Hula and its swamps were limited.
In the past few years, following nearly 50 years of an unsuccessful struggle to utilize the drained valley's resources, the Israeli government has finally recognized that successful development can endure only if a balanced compromise between nature and development is reached.
