Video Description

More info at https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/video/tv-show/tv-specials/holy-land This hour-long special weaves together both the Israeli and the Palestinian narratives. In Israel, we go from the venerable ramparts of Jerusalem to the vibrant modern skyline of Tel Aviv. In Palestine, we harvest olives near Hebron, visit a home in Bethlehem, and pop into a university in Ramallah. We also learn about security walls, disputed settlements, and the persistent challenges facing the region. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #holyland Check out more Rick Steves’ Europe travel resources: • “Rick Steves’ Europe” public television series: https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/video/tv-show • “Travel with Rick Steves” public radio program: https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/audio/radio • European Tours: https://www.ricksteves.com/tours • Guidebooks: https://store.ricksteves.com/shop/guidebooks • Travel Gear: https://store.ricksteves.com/shop/ • Travel Classes: https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/video/travel-talks • Rick Steves Audio Europe App: https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/audio/audio-europe Rick Steves, America's most respected authority on European travel, writes European travel guidebooks, and hosts travel shows on public television and public radio. 00:00 Introduction 02:43 History 07:20 Jerusalem 14:14 Bethlehem 19:15 Modern Jerusalem 24:04 Tel Aviv 27:24 Haifa 29:05 Sea of Galilee 29:47 Golan Heights 32:22 Conversations with Residents 38:34 Palestine 40:58 Hebron 45:51 Dead Sea 46:55 Nablus 49:02 Balata 51:02 Ramallah 54:12 Conclusion
