Encyclopedia: Safed

Safed (Hebrew: צְפַת, Tiberian: sˁə.ˈfaθ, Israeli: Tsfat, Ashkenazi: Tzfas; Arabic: صفد sˁa.fad; KJV English: Zephath) is a city in the North District in Israel. According to the CBS, at the end of 2003 the city had a total population of 26,600 residents. Safed is regarded one of the Four Holy Cities in Judaism along with Jerusalem, Tiberias and Hebron, and is a center for the Kabbalah, an esoteric form of Jewish mysticism. It is also famous as a health and holiday resort with pleasant summers and snowy winters with a lot of greenery thanks to its high altitude of more than 900 meters and high precipitation.
