Tell people you’re planning a trip to Palestine, and you might be met with a couple of incredulous looks. Fair enough–this area has been embroiled in Middle Eastern tensions for decades, caught up in political chaos over territories, borders, settlements and annexations that shows no sign of being resolved any time soon.Visitors will quickly learn there is far more to Palestine: besides being the heart of the Holy Land, it’s also home to mouthwatering cuisine, fantastic wines, expansive deserts, centuries-old relics, bedouins, historic cities, and even the famous Dead Sea.
