Is December a good time to visit Jerusalem, Israel?

Asked 3 years ago

Hi guys, I want to take my mom to the holy land of Jerusalem for Christmas. She has never been there and always wanted to go. How is the weather that time of the year, and which sites can you recommend seeing? Thanks!

The best time to visit the Holy Land is during spring and autumn. During these seasons, the days are pleasantly warm while the nights are cool. During December the weather is cold, but you can attend many festivals and events, such as Hanukkah and Christmas. You can also go skiing at Mount Hermon or tour through Jerusalem.
