Jericho lies on the Jordan valley; it is the lowest part on earth, and the oldest city in the world. Jericho is famous for its sweet fruits, bananas, palm trees, water springs, and the ruins of old Jericho (Tel Essultan).
Jesus stopped in Jericho many times.
Jericho’s main features are the Mount of Temptation, the Syconar Tree of Zachary, the River Jordan where Jesus was baptized by St. John, Hisham’s Palace, and the Monastery of St. George (Wadi Kelt).
