4.5Palestine Gardens(18 reviews) - A beautiful "little" roadside gem... Points of Interest & Landmarks • Gardens
Yes it's WAY off the beaten path, but this beautiful "little" roadside gem is really worth the trip!! This is a scale model of the Holy Land constructed in the 60's by Reverend Walter Harvell Jackson. The current owner, Mr. Don Bradley, took us on a guided tour through the park... along the way he explained how all the cities tied to together and shared many stories. His combination of personal testimony and Biblical truth make him and the park an amazing witness. It was a really great time! Check out their webpage: http://www.palestinegardens.org/See more..
