VIC’s main goal is to serve tourists in Bethlehem with relevant for their visit.Palestine’s location on the migration route from Europe and Western Asia to Africa is responsible for the very large number of bird species in the country.

The bird is commonly associated with the area of Palestinian land and even its picture has been used on post stamps.It has been as well used by an artist Khaled Jarrar in the design of a potential “State of Palestine” border control stamp, which he stamps into international visitors passports as a call for freedom of Palestine.
