17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Run for your groceries

Every pilgrim in Holy Land should run to Bethlehem, like simple shepherds did. But hey, you cannot enter biblical village (now a big town) just like that. Though it’s just next to Jerusalem, you have a wall to cross. Palestinian side of the wall is now a big gallery of art, and the most famous artist connected with Betheleehm is Banksy, of course. He "opened” here a hotel “with worst view in the world”. So here you have it on one pic -a hotel, a view, and a truly difficult situation.
