Jericho is the oldest city in the world.  Over 20 settlements have been discovered by archaeologists.  The first one dates back over 11,000 years ago.  They used to build houses out of mud brick that were round, with a courtyard in the middle of several houses with no street planning.  There are a few artifacts and excavations from each period of time, from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age.  In the Stone Age it was found that they used to bury the dead under the floors of the houses. In Jericho there are two ancient synagogues, with beautiful mosaics. 

Bethlehem is the birthplace of Jesus, and the holiest place for the Christian religion.  Cross manger square to get to the Byzantine Church of Nativity, see the original mosaic floor.  Tour the Church to see the place where Jesus was born, with the manger and the alter of the three wise men.   Arrive at the Crusader Church that is dedicated to St. Catherine.
