It was located 4 km west of Safad. Today, Kfar Shamai is built on the site of the old village, and Amirim is built on the southern part of the village land. In 1945, the village had a population of 310. Al-Sammu'i had a mosque and a shrine for a local sage known as al-Shaykh Muhammad al-'Ajami.

Farradiyya (Arabic: الفرّاضية, al-Farâdhiyyah) was a Palestinian Arab village of 670 located 8 kilometers (5.0 mi) southwest of Safad, A Jewish settlement called 'Farod' was built atop the once ruined village. Farradiyya was situated on the southern slopes of Mount Zabud with an average elevation of 375 meters (1,230 ft) above sea level. The Safad-Nazareth highway (Route 866) passed it to the north. Its total land area was 19,747 dunams, of which 25 dunams were built-up areas and 5,365 dunams cultivable. In 1949, a kibbutz named Parod, after the village's ancient name, was founded nearby.

Nahal Pashhur (Pashhur Stream in Hebrew: נחל פַּשְׁחוּר) is a stream in the Upper Galilee region of northern Israel. The stream flows from the Akbara Stream to the Amud Stream, south of Safed. Its source is at an elevation of approximately 570 meters above sea level, and it ends at the Amud Stream at an elevation of about 365 meters above sea level. The stream is named after the Pashhur priestly division, one of the priestly divisions that returned from Babylon during the time of Ezra and Nehemiah. In the stream's channel, there is a spring called "Ein Pashhur."

Bersabe (Hebrew: בְּאֵר שֶׁבַע, romanized: Bəʾēr Ševaʿ; Ancient Greek: Βηρσαβέ, romanized: Bērsabé, or Βηρσουβαί, Bērsoubaí), also known as Beersheba of Galilee, was a Second Temple period Jewish village located near the town of Kefar Hananya which marked the boundary between the Upper Galilee and the Lower Galilee, as described by Josephus, with Upper Galilee stretching from Bersabe in the Beit HaKerem Valley to Baca (Peki'in) in the north. Bersabe was one of several towns and villages of Galilee fortified by Josephus during the First Jewish–Roman War, being one of the most defensible positions and where insurgents from across Galilee had taken up refuge against the Imperial Roman army when the surrounding countryside was plundered. The ancient village has been identified with the present site of Khirbet es-Saba, a hilltop ruin within a distance of less than a kilometer of the village Kafr 'Inan (Kefr ʿAnan), at the eastern fringe of the Beit HaKerem Valley, and rising some 472 metres (1,549 ft) above sea-level. The same site has been rendered by other authors under the name Khirbet Abu esh-Shebaʿ, a little northwest of Kefr ʿAnan and closely adjoining Farradiyya/Parod to their southwest. The site lies 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) eastward of the Arab town of er-Rameh, along Route 85, and about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) southwest of Safed. In 1873, Kitchener and Conder, on a surveying mission with the Palestine Exploration Fund, visited the site and mentioned it as being "a large ruin, which stands upon the terraced hill top." A survey later conducted at the site reveal that the village had occupied an area of about 70 dunams (17.3 acres). From a prospect on Mount Kefir in the Mount Meron range, as one looks out over the hilltop ruin of Bersabe, the square layout or lines where once stood the walls of the town can still be distinguished. The line of the ancient wall extended over an area comprising the upper third of the hill. The thickness of the northernmost wall, where the hill was easily accessible, is measured at 2.8 metres (9.2 ft), and was built with three semi-circular watch towers. The easternmost wall was built in a zig-zag configuration. The walls were constructed of fieldstones.

Kafr ʿInān (Arabic: كفر عنان), is a former Palestinian village, depopulated in the 1948 Arab–Israeli war. It was located around 33 kilometres (21 mi) east of Acre. In ancient times, it was known as Kfar Hananiah, and was a large Jewish village and a significant pottery production center. Archaeological surveys indicate Kefar Hanania was founded in the Early Roman period, and was inhabited through the Byzantine period. It was resettled in the Middle Ages and the modern era. By mid 1500, the village was wholly Muslim and was known as Kafr 'Inan. Kafr ʿInān was captured by the Israel Defense Forces during the 1948 Arab–Israeli war. It was depopulated and destroyed as part of the 1948 Palestinian expulsion, with its residents expelled to the West Bank or to other Arab towns in the newly established Israel. Many villagers managed to "infiltrate" back to Kafr ʿInān, but on three separate occasions in January and February 1949 the Israeli army expelled them. A shrine for the Sheikh Abu Hajar Azraq and the remains of a small domed building are still standing, along with the remains of various burial sites of rabbis. In 1989, the Israeli village of Kfar Hananya was established on Kafr ʿInān land on a hill adjacent to the former Palestinian village.

Kfar Hananya (Hebrew: כְּפַר חֲנַנְיָה) is a community settlement in the Galilee in northern Israel under the administration of the Merom HaGalil Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 781.The village marks the border between the historic Upper and Lower Galilee regions. Lower Galilee is defined in the Mishnah (Shevi'it 9:2) as the area south of Kfar Hananya where the Sycamore Fig tree grows (Ficus sycomorus).

Nahal Livnim (Hebrew:נחל ליבנים) is a tributary of Nahal Amud in the Upper Galilee region of northern Israel. The stream flows from west to east, with its upper part beginning at an elevation of 303 meters above sea level on the Livnim Ridge, south of Kfar Hananya, and it empties into Nahal Amud at an elevation of 11 meters below sea level near Khirbet Sirin in the Sirin Plateau. The stream passes north of Kadarim, and within it lies the Livnim Spring. It spans an area with slopes averaging a gradient of about 19%. The region hosts a variety of natural flora and fauna, making it an ecologically rich and diverse environment. Over the years, the stream has been impacted by the construction of various infrastructures in the area, including roads and interchanges, which have disrupted the natural ecological corridor. Despite efforts to preserve the site, the damage to the stream channel and its surroundings has been significant, leading to partial destruction of the unique habitat.

Inbar (Hebrew: ענבר) (lit. "amber") is a kibbutz near Karmiel in the Galilee in northern Israel. Inbar is the country's smallest kibbutz, with only about 10 members.

Al-Zahiriyya al-Tahta (Arabic: الظاهرية التحته, romanized: al-Ẓāhiriyya al-Ṭaḥṭā) was a Palestinian Arab village in the Safad Subdistrict. The village was on a descent at the southwestern part of Safad, a town 1 kilometer (0.62 mi) east of the village. Possibly named after the Mamluk sultan al-Zahir Baybars (r. 1260–1277), the village was incorporated into the Safad Sanjak of the Ottoman Empire in 1517, and its entirely Muslim population paid fixed taxes, as well as taxes on winter pastures, an olive oil or grape syrup press and beehives during the 16th century. By the late 19th century, the population grew to 335 inhabitants, all Muslims. The population remained about the same in the last years of British Mandatory rule. The village lands spanned 6,773 dunums, nearly half of which were used to grow grains, the residents living on 28 dunums. Al-Zahiriyya al-Tahta was depopulated during the 1948 Palestine War when its inhabitants fled shortly after the capture of Safed by Jewish paramilitary forces.
