The West Bank is located between Israel and Jordan and borders the Dead Sea in the southeast. Though taxis are available, walking is the easiest mode of transportation once surroundings become more familiar. Here are the best places to volunteer in Palestine.

Bethlehem. You’ll find this ancient city in central West Bank, which is home to 25,000 people. While the city is not a typical Christmas card image of a manger and small village, you’ll come to quickly discover that it’s covered with holy sites, like the Church of the Nativity. If you’re not into the spiritual scene, you can still visit the Old City to see the Herodium, a palace fortress. With an aim to conserve Palestinian history, you can also explore one of the many museums.

Jerusalem. On the plateau of in the Judaean Mountains between the Mediterranean Sea and Dead Sea lies this pilgrimage destination for Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Being the capital of both Palestine and Israel, Jerusalem is at the core of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. However, there is still much to explore here, such as the Israel Museum, the Symphony Orchestra, and the Biblical Zoo in your down time.

Hebron. Nestled in the Judaean Mountains in southern West Bank sits this large city, which is in need of volunteers for cultural preservation and restoration. Home to one of the most famous historical sites in the world, the Cave of the Patriarchs, which is said to enclose tombs of biblical matriarchs and patriarchs. Even as a city that experiences a lot of unrest, the city is flourishing with its skilled traders and artisans from pottery to glass blowing.
