There is the grave of a priest In the church who received permission to build a modern church and collected donations for it. The Greek Orthodox community of Nazareth speaks Arabic. Prayers and inscriptions in the church are in Arabic, except for icons and names of saints, which are in Greek.
We decided to go to Nazareth for Christmas. But very quickly, we realized that it is possible and necessary to come to Nazareth without any particular reason. It is a very self-sufficient, authentic, traditional, and modern city with a good spirit, smiling people, and delicious food. We took a walk from Maria’s well through the streets of the old town to the colorful bazaar, the white mosque, the synagogue church, the Church of the Annunciation and the Church of the House of Joseph, the Museum of cave-dwelled Nazareth, Fahome Coffee Shop, Alreda Restaurant, and Tishreen Restaurant. It was a wonderful trip!
