Khan al-Tujjar

Khan al-Tujjar is the ruin of an old caravanserai located near Nazareth. Historically used as a roadside inn for merchants and travelers, the site now consists of stone ruins. Visitors go here to see the architectural remains of a traditional trade stop and to experience a quiet environment away from the city center.

Getting There

The site is located on the outskirts of Nazareth. The most practical way to reach the ruins from the city center is by car or taxi, as there is limited public transport to this specific ruin. The drive typically takes about 10 to 15 minutes depending on traffic.

Visit Duration

Because the site is a set of ruins without an extensive museum or guided tour, most visitors spend between 30 and 60 minutes exploring the grounds.
