The streets of the old city lead us to its heart - the bazaar. Nazareth became a large urban center during the reign of Arab governors in the Galilee. The development happened in the eighteenth century, and since then, the city has been growing continuously. Nazareth has three large communities. These are Arabs followers of the Greek Orthodox Church, Arabs followers of the Catholic Church, and Muslim Arabs.
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!
