Around 2.6 million people travel from around the world to experience the culture, learn about religious and cultural sites, and pray. Bethlehem University is often one of sites visited, located atop the hill in Bethlehem, several blocks from Manager Square and the Church of the Nativity.
On average, 4,000 pilgrims visit Bethlehem University each year from all over the world. They are greeted by Amjaad Musleh, Bethlehem University’s Guest Relations Officer, and a host of student ambassadors. Pilgrims get to interact with students and Bethlehem University’s Vice-Chancellor and tour the campus.
One of the many reasons to stop at Bethlehem University on your pilgrimage is the chance to befriend Palestine’s next group of leaders and visionaries.
