Drive into the Judaean desert to visit the Orthodox monastery of Mar Saba, perched in a gorge with its beautiful chapel (limited access for women!). Then continue to visit the magnificant Herodian fortress, an extraordinary fortified palace built by King Herod on an artificial hill.
We continue to Hebron city to the Tombs of the Patriarchs and a stop at a glass handicraft factory. The Herodian phase of the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron is one of the most impressive buildings of the ancient world. The interior is Crusader and Mamluk, and is now divided between Muslims and Jews. |
