It was once part of the Nabatean Incense Route. Mamshit sits in the heart of Israel’s Negev Desert. It is a testament to the past prosperity of the area. Thousands of years ago, great camel caravans would wind their way from the great city of Petra in present-day Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea bringing with them spices, incense, herbs, gems and medicines. Along what became known as the Incense Route, smaller cities appeared which catered to the travelers. Visit Mamshit to experience the smallest, yet best-preserved of Israel’s Incense Route cities. Walk up to the entrance of the walled city and feel the isolation of the desert all around you. Rising like a mirage, Mamshit offers the chance to walk past ancient houses along deserted streets and see impressive churches and mosaics. Many of the houses have been restored, providing further insight into what they would have looked like during the Nabatean era. Note the defensive towers protecting the city from all sides. Climb to the top of one for panoramic views over the stark desert beyond. Be sure to also visit Mamshit’s two churches, one of which is home to highly ornate and beautifully preserved mosaics. At different times of the year, often around Jewish holidays, Mamshit’s street market is recreated, providing a delightful insight into the Nabatean culture. Enjoy the hubbub and charismatic vendors, and peruse the traditional wares on offer for great keepsakes and souvenirs. For a true Nabatean experience, it is possible to spend a night in thatched tents or an ancient khan too. Mamshit is open daily, with shorter opening hours on Fridays and during the winter months. There is a fee to enter the park and concessions are available. Allow at least 2 hours to get around all of the sights. For another adventure, follow the walking trails which begin and end at Mamshit. Combine a visit here with trips to the other three UNESCO World Heritage Site Nabatean cities in Israel: Avdat, Haluza and Shivta. ### Popular places to visit ![#Reflections South District, Israel](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/602429/cbfa40ff-3760-40aa-8da1-d57d1d091942.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Midbar Yehuda Nature Reserve You can take time to visit Midbar Yehuda Nature Reserve during your travels to Tamar.
