Before arriving in Jericho, which is 258 meters under the sea level, you will pass the Inn of the Good Samaritan and continue on through the Biblical wilderness of the Judean Desert. You will then pass Wadi Kelt and see the 5th century Monastery of Saint George and pause at the mark which indicates that we have reached "sea level".
Once you arrive in Bethlehem, you will visit the Church of the Nativity entering from Manger Square. The church was built in the 4th century over the grotto where Jesus was born and later in the 6th century the church was reconstructed. In recent times the church has been restored and renovated. Within the church is the Grotto of the Nativity where a star marks the spot where Jesus was born and an altar to the three Wise Men. Next, you will visit the Crusader Church of Saint Catherine and see the underground grotto where Saint Jerome painstakingly translated the Bible from Hebrew to Latin, creating the Vulgate. Before returning back to Jerusalem, you will make another stop in Bethlehem at the Shepherds Field where an Angel of the Lord appeared to shepherds on Christmas night to tell them of the imminent birth of the savior.
