Kfar Etzion

Reviewed By BrachaK_13 - Jerusalem, Israel

This shopping center has been growing and providing more and more services. There are small places to dine, boutique clothing, shoe outlet, appliance store, gardening supplies, and more, even pet needs. Although it has individual stores without indoor mall advantages, there is accessible parking and everything is compactly near each other. Convenient for locals and great stop along travelling.

You can't come to Bethlehem without visiting. A beautiful, historic significant spot. Don't be turned off by the long lines. It is worth the wait.

Milk Grotto

Milk Grotto is Behind the Nativity Church and Next door to Blessings Gift Shop and the Olive Wood Factory. Holy Family found refuge during the Massacre of the Innocents, before they could flee to Egypt. A "drop of milk" of the Virgin Mary fell on the floor of the cave and changed its color to white. Must See.

Reviewed By aliammag - Bengaluru, India

It was a short walk from the church of Nativity to the Grotto. Our guide wanted us to visit the church of Nativity after visiting the Grotto due to longer time expected to visit the Nativity Church and he was right! The tradition is that Mary and Joseph stopped at this cave to feed the Baby Jesus while fleeing to Egypt. A drop of milk fell down on the rock which became white. So the cave became a place of veneration. A church was built by Franciscans earlier near the cave. A modern chapel dedicated to mother Mary is also connected to the Grotto. This site is an amazing place, worth a visit.

Shepherd's Sanctuary

Reviewed By ECLadines - Paranaque, Philippines

This is inside the vast Shepherds Field. We went inside a small cave before heading to the church with a bronze (looks dark) statue of an angel of the shepherds. Inside there are murals depicting the birth of Jesus and the visitation of the angels. There were not much people around when we went there so less stressful walking around.

Susya - National Heritage Site

Reviewed By David_Haivri - Israel, null

Politics aside, region can be a bit confusing even for locals, let alone for foreign tourists. I wish that tripadvisor would allow to list locations that are under full Israeli control as such so to help tourists get a better understanding of what to expect. Susya is site of an ancient Israelite city, dating back to the time of the second temple in Jerusalem. It is a large archaeological site with many artifacts of buildings and cave dwellings and great ancient synagogue with amazing stone pillars and mosaic floors. As mentioned above it is in Israeli administered areas, the site entrance has a modern visitors center, coffee shop, gift shop and clean restrooms. Add to your must visit list.
