Summary
The oldest still-operating church in the world, the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, is due for some much-needed restoration amongst the smoke stained walls surrounding the traditional grotto of Christ’s birth. The aqueduct at Caesarea Maritima also needs some work to preserve this unique monument to Roman engineering. Perhaps they can get the water running again.
