Bethsaida is an ancient fishing village located near the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee in modern-day Israel. It is known for its biblical significance, as it is mentioned in the New Testament as the hometown of several of Jesus' disciples, including Peter, Andrew, and Philip. Archaeological excavations have revealed remnants of a vibrant community, including homes, streets, and artifacts from the Roman and Byzantine periods. The name "Bethsaida" means "house of fishing" in Aramaic, reflecting its origins as a fishing hub. The site has been identified with two possible locations: one near the Jordan River and another at Et-Tell. Today, Bethsaida is an important archaeological site, attracting visitors interested in its historical and religious significance.
