Bethlehem: Jesus birthplace


Upper: Look at the place to mark the place of the manger and the repose of the holy family.

Upper: Part of our Big Family

Upper: Me and my wife, Inside the Church of the nativity.

We visited Bethlehem, we entered the Church of the Nativity where the birthplace of Jesus (Isa Al Masih or Isa Ibn Maryam) thru the Door of Humility is the lower door we have to bow to enter it. Bethlehem is still world famous because of its importance in several Bibles stories.

All people from different religions are gathered here to see the birthplace of Jesus son of the Virgin Mary. In Muslims we believe that Jesus is a Prophet son of the Virgin Mary (Isa Ibn Maryam)

If I am not mistaken in front of the Church of the Nativity there is a Caliph Omar Mosque, which was build during the Caliph Omar era.
