Tuba Zangariya

Tuba-Zangariyya is a present-day Palestinian town located along the banks of the Jordan River, near Lake Tiberias (the Sea of Galilee). It lies approximately 3 kilometers from the Jordan River and 10 kilometers from Lake Tiberias. Administratively, the town falls under the jurisdiction of the District of Safad, situated to its east, at a distance of about 13.5 kilometers from the city, and at an elevation of 290 meters above sea level.

The total land area of the town is estimated at 1,962 dunums.

The town was established after the 1948 war, when several families from the Zangariyya Bedouin tribe, who remained within the occupied Palestinian territories, settled in the area. The town is also known by the name Tuba al-Heib.
