Walk Through Biblical Nazareth
Visit Nazareth, where, in Christian eyes, "everything" started. After meeting your Nazareth tour guide, proceed to the following sites.
- Visit the place where Gabriel greeted the Virgin Mary, telling her that she had been chosen by the Lord. This site is called Mary's Well.
- Walk onward to St. Joseph's House and Carpentry, the house and workshop of Joseph, which is today seen as a solid, simple work of architecture.
- Next, tour Old Nazareth, passing by the Synagogue, which is actually a small church believed to have been the only synagogue in the village during Jesus' time. Continue to stride through romantic squares as you return to where you started, the site of the Annunciation: Mary's Well.
- Then, walk to St. Gabriel Church, known as the Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation. It is an Eastern Orthodox church of great significance to Christians.
- Lastly, stop by an eatery that serves authentic, traditional Lebanese food such as falafel, hummus, and kebabs. The tour ends here.
