From Jordan to Jerusalem
Sep 5, 2018 · 19 min read
WELL, my arrival into Palestine was by no means relaxing. After my Jordanian trip with a driver named Mohammed who could not tell us a thing about the country, he dropped us at the Allenby Bridge.
Also known these days as the King Hussein Bridge, the Allenby Bridge is a key border crossing from Jordan into the area generally known as the West Bank of the Jordan, or the West Bank for short. This area is occupied by Israel but otherwise controlled by the Palestinian Authority, and along with the Gaza Strip, forms the area known today as Palestine.
