Beit Jala is a small town nestled in the hills of Palestine, located near the city of Bethlehem. Known for its rich history and close-knit community, Beit Jala is renowned for its ancient olive trees, which have been cultivated for generations. The town’s people are deeply connected to the land, with many working in agriculture, producing some of the finest olive oil in the region.

In addition to farming, many residents of Beit Jala work in craftsmanship and small businesses, contributing to the local economy.
