Dry Cough Baby 6 Months

Nablus

A week ago on the weekend I was with my cousin, who is currently on a visit there, in Nablus, the 2nd largest city in the West Bank. We have
Wafaa, a Palestinian woman who knows Roza there, visited and were a little out of it by Nablus.

Among other things we have seen parts of the ancient castle of Nablus, an old factory for olive oil soap, a woodworking shop, which was formerly a prison, a spice factory the Jacob's Well and the old town.
the way we were with Wafaa, her son and a friend of hers.

The son of Wafa, Mohammad (Hammody)

Nablus is in itself not very touristy, however (other than us, we have actually seen anyone who looked European, and we have already noticed).
Many of the really interesting old buildings in Nablus dilapidated or built over. The people we met there said, that this is by design by the Israelis because Nablus is to be not a tourist town.
