Was En Karem National Park always a peaceful retreat from Jerusalem’s bustling streets? Today, it’s an oasis of tranquility nestled in the Jerusalem hills. En Karem National Park invites you to journey back in time. This park is more than just scenic trails and lush greenery. It’s a place steeped in history, echoing with biblical tales and Christian tradition. En Karem National Park was once a humble agricultural village known as Beit HaKerem. The New Testament refers to it as a “town in the hill country of Judea”. At the heart of the village was a spring, believed to be the very spot where a momentous encounter took place. Picture this: Mary, pregnant with Jesus, meeting her cousin, Elizabeth, who was carrying John the Baptist. This spring, now known as Mary’s Spring, still flows, a testament to the stories etched into this landscape. Over the centuries, this significant event led to the construction of monasteries and churches, adding layers of history to the area. En Karem National Park beckons you to stroll through its serene pathways. Explore these trails, and you’ll discover not just the beauty of nature but also glimpses into its storied past.
