Nazareth offers the tourist a wide variety of different and diverse experiences such as a stroll through the Old City, a visit to monasteries and churches with their rich history. “Nazareth Village” located in the town impressively replicates the life in the village as it was in the first century AD (with restored buildings and archaeological remains).
