BTW, does anyone know if it's safe to go to Jericho and Bethlehem?

As far know, there's nothing much to see in Beit Lechem and Nazareth.

Normaly they have great hummus at Bet lechem - but thats a place in Tel aviv

Today there should be huge party in Betlehem, cause the christians celebrate there, and they have the "birth-chirch" but apart from that, there's nothing much to see...

The Church Of The Nativity is actually a very historical site though. Many people go to Israel just to see that site.

Thanks MH, i didn't know the correct name. I just heard about it in the news, that many pilgrims were going there today. I guess I'll have to see it also one day....next time i'll go to Israel

I think the Church in Jerusalem (the holy sculpture....where Jesus was buried before he left his grave)....is more interesting.....
and the one in Nazareth as well....

There's a star there that many people make a special effort to see. I don't exactly remember what that start represents, what it is for (I don't even remember if it is a star!), but if you go all the way there, you should make sure to see it.
I personally hate touring and site seeing. Did it once when my uncle took me, my mom and my sister. Granted, I was only 10, I didn't really care either way.
Even now, I'd rather be at the beach, at a bar, at a club or hanging out with some relatives there.

Reading everyone's replies makes me want to go to Israel!

Hopefully by '08 or '09, I'll go and visit.

No Israeli girl can say no to a gentile (goy)!


(I guess endogamy is prevalent in Israel)

VERY cool!

I miss Israel very much myself. But luckily, all my family lives there (and by family I also include good friends who are like family) so I go every year

I loved the photo of the Bat Yam beach a lot. The good ol' Mediteranean sea shells, awww!
Great thread!! Thanks so much for sharing!
