    Kochav Jordan (also known in Hebrew as Yafa Nof and Kochav HaRouch, in Arabic: کوکّ الهوا (كوكّ ال-هوا), and in French: Belvoir (بلوُور), or Coquet (كوكت) in Crusader sources) is a national park and archaeological site located at the eastern end of Ramat Issachar (Ramat Kochav), on the edge of the Lower Galilee, between the Sea of Galilee and Beit She'an. The site contains archaeological remains from various periods, including the ruins of an ancient Hebrew settlement, the synagogue at Kochav Jordan, remains of a magnificent Crusader fortress, and remains of an Arab settlement. The site is located on a peak 312 meters above sea level, and its rocky slopes rise to a height of 550 meters above the Jordan Valley, which extends to its east.
