Nazareth
We decided to spend the day in Nazareth today rather than get on the bus.
Nazareth is the largest city in the North District of Israel. It is sometimes referred to as "the Arab capital of Israel". The residents are predominantly of Arab citizens of Israel and most are either Muslim or Christian.
