Glorious Trip to<br />
Nazareth by Night<br />

Subhi Tannous<br />
THERE WAS A BUZZ OF ANTICIPATION<br />
AS TWO BUSES LEFT THE GROUNDS<br />
OF <strong>IDC</strong> AND OVER 100 OF <strong>IDC</strong>’S MOST<br />
TREASURED ISRAEL FRIENDS WERE<br />
TAKEN TO NAZARETH FOR A MAGICAL<br />
EVENING SPONSORED BY SUBHI<br />
TANNOUS, DEVOTED FRIEND OF <strong>IDC</strong> AND<br />
AN INFLUENTIAL FIGURE WITHIN HIS<br />
COMMUNITY.<br />
on arrival, the guests were split into three groups, all led by local<br />
guides who introduced them to “Nazareth by night,” where they<br />
were able to experience the beauty of the architecture and paintings under<br />
a starlit sky.<br />
<strong>The</strong> guests then continued on to the magnificent home of the Tannous<br />
family, in Nazereth Illit, where a fairytale garden dinner was laid out for<br />
them and they enjoyed glorious hospitality by the whole Tannous family.<br />
<strong>The</strong> mayor of Nazareth Illit, Shimon Gapso, welcomed the guests to his<br />
town, while Subhi Tannous welcomed them to his home, reiterating the<br />
importance of Arab-Israeli coexistence. <strong>IDC</strong> Founder and President,<br />
Prof. Uriel Reichman, complimented the hosts for their generous<br />
and overwhelming hospitality, and the guests for always being such<br />
great supporters of <strong>IDC</strong>. <strong>The</strong> group went home with full stomachs and<br />
enchanting memories of the aesthetics of Nazareth by night.
