Bethlehem is the birthplace of Christ the Savoir. Christmas in Bethlehem is more religious than fun. But it does not mean that there is no fun in Bethlehem. In Manger Square, many people gather to celebrate Christmas. Church of the Nativity is decorated with flags and various ornaments. People swarm in like flies and crowd the church ways.
Bethlehem celebrates Christmas with an annual procession. People stand on rooftops to view this dramatic scene. The parade includes horsemen and police officials on Arabian horses. Behind these men are solitary horsemen carrying a cross.
The procession soberly enters through the threshold of the Church. Then an ancient effigy of the Holy Child is placed inside the church. Every home in Bethlehem has a cross-painted over the door and the village has a star placed high up on a pole in the village square.
