El Khader is a site of ruins located in the West Bank, Israel. National Geographic wrote about it as this:
"The ruins of El Khader (seen in the picture enclosed), a cross-shaped church built sometime between the fourth and seventh centuries and rebuilt by 12th-century crusaders, still stand on the outskirts of the town. For nearly a millennium after Christ, such Christian villages dominated the rocky hilltops of Palestine, declared holy ground by the emperor Constantine after his conversion to Christianity in 312."
Looks like an interesting place to go - right?
