With dozens of churches scattered throughout the Christian Quarter of the Old City, near the Old City, and in the neighborhood of Ein Karem, and being only six kilometers from Bethlehem, Jerusalem is an unforgettable place to celebrate the Christmas holiday. Enjoy the wonderful sight of decorated Christmas trees, the bright stars, and Santa Claus puppets all around, see the customs of different denominations in the churches and monasteries, and take part in the tours of the city alleys to the sounds of bells and carols.
In light of the security situation, most of the events will not take place this year, but you can still visit the churches and various tours during the holiday period.
