Nazareth is the sacred city of the Christian world, the place where the childhood of Christ passed. The historical (that is, the Lower) Nazareth is inhabited by Israeli Arabs, about 30% of whom are Arab Christians of different faiths, and about 70% Muslims. Therefore, Nazareth is considered the most Christian city in Israel, and also the only city in the country where Sunday is a day off. In addition, there is a Jewish Natrat-Ilit, that is, Upper Nazareth, which gradually merges with the Lower City.
