We had a group of 20. However we were able to go up the cable cars and attend this beautiful site. The history of it and just knowing that the monks live here and pray endlessly. Breathtaking sites.

The Monastery of St Gerassimos is a site to behold. In addition to decor that will captivate your interests and the skeletons on display, the place entirely reflects and reveals a different time place culture and life once lived- for the Lord. Every one should visit this place. It is unique from all the sites I've seen and one to remember!

We visited this ancient city, which is supposed to be considered 10500 yeras old habite, and oldest city. Besides this it is 13000 feet below sea level. THE RUINS are worth studing for the experts of Archiology.
4. Hisham's Palace

Reviewed By Radix7 - Sydney, Australia
The ticket seller was apologetic that the construction under way to display mosaics and other features at the site is not yet complete, but there is still enough to see of the courtyard and buildings of this early Islamic palace, misnamed Hisham's palace for reasons I forget. An easy side visit if in Jericho for the archaeological site of Tell es Sultan and easy to reach from the main valley road up the West Bank.
5. Zaccheus' Tree
