The Call of Jerusalem: Pilgrimage Tours to the Holy Land

This book can be regarded as a very comprehensive handbook for travelers to the Holy Land, and it serves both as a reference and a travel guide for those who are visiting the Holy Land. The destinations described in this book cover almost every Christian 'must-visit' site in the Holy Land. The author's explanation of each biblical site is very detailed, including the historical, geographical and cultural aspects, as well as current background. In addition, the author provides many practical guidance and suggestions for the reader based on his own rich personal experiences. The tips provided can also save first-time visitors to the Holy Land from many unnecessary hassles, including the trap of being deceived by unscrupulous tour-guides. 

This book can be read from three different perspectives: 

• As a Holy Land travel guidebook for Christian travelers 
• As a devotional aid for Christian spiritual discipline 
• As an introduction to Missions to the Jews
