Bethlehem is the city where Jesus was born. Where else but in Bethlehem should we celebrate the bright festival of Christ's Birth?!
We will visit the Church of the Nativity, which is one of the oldest continuously functioning churches in the world. It is built over the cave where, according to legend, Jesus of Nazareth was born. Therefore, for Christians around the world, the Church of the Nativity is one of the greatest sanctuaries.
We will also visit the village of Shepherds - Beit Sahour (meaning "House of Shepherds" in Arabic). According to the Gospel, it was at this location that the shepherds tending their sheep were first informed by the Magi about the birth of the Savior.
On January 7th - Christmas - there will be free entry to Bethlehem regardless of citizenship!

Attractions
Modern Bethlehem is located on the territory of the Palestinian Authority. The main population is Muslim Arabs and a small part of Christian Arabs. The main income of Bethlehem is the flow of tourists. Christian pilgrims from all over the world come to this city, the place where Jesus Christ was born. Every Christmas in Bethlehem Christmas masses are held snd the masses are broadcast around the world. The main shrine of the city is a silver star in the cave of the Church of the Nativity of Christ, which marks the place where Jesus was born. In this temple there is a miraculous icon of the smiling Mother of God, the cave of the Beaten Babies.
The Church of the Nativity of Christ was erected in Bethlehem above the cave where Jesus was born. Divine services at the Nativity Church have not practically interrupted since the Early Byzantine era. The modern building of the Church of the Nativity is the only Christian temple in Palestine, preserved from the pre-Muslim period.
The underground temple in the name of St. George the Victorious and the temple in honor of the Virgin Mary Cathedral are located near the Palestinian town of Beit Sakhur in a small valley with olive trees, some of which are older than 2000 years.
This place is also known as the Shepherds’ Field, where the Angel announced the birth of Christ to the shepherds awake in the field.
In the cave where the announcement of the Angels took place, three shepherds, eyewitnesses of the event, wished to be buried at the place where they were honored to see the Glory of the Lord.
