So the first shop I think you should consider checking out is Christmas House Bethlehem! This fine establishment is owned and operated by the Giacaman family, a Christian family living in the Holy Land since 1,600 CE. The owner is the father of the family, Issa. He inherited this business from his father, Elias. In addition, Issa Giacaman has three sons and two daughters. The Christmas House was established in 2010, carrying a family heritage since 1917, and it operates with two stores and one olive wood factory.
