Deeply Palestinian, intense politics, strong Muslim fabric—rewarding but requires sensitivity and security awareness.
Money-saving tips
Mid-range guesthouses like Raghadan or similar offer private rooms, reliable info, and introductions to local guides.
Dine at small restaurants with sit-down service; expect fresh Palestinian salads, grilled meats, and bread.
Hire a local guide ($20–30/day) to navigate security, history, and social sensitivities.
