Palestine lies between the Mediterranean Coast and the Jordan River, at the crossroads between Africa and the Middle East. The individual faces in any Palestinian town remind you of this rich history of cross-cultural influences. Today Palestine is proud to offer comfortable, stylish accommodations, fabulous restaurants, refined artists and galleries, exquisite handicrafts, innumerable archeological and religious sites, and antiquities from all ages.
Palestine is governed by a Parliamentary democracy with a bicameral legislative system. The President, who is currently Mahmoud Abbas, is elected every seven years and the Head of Government is the Prime Minister.
