About Three Arches 2

I am Maikel Canawati, Owner of The Three Arches 2 in Bethlehem. The Canawati family is deeply rooted in the field of tourism since the beginning of the nineteenth century. Through the years, pilgrims have visited the Holy land. Since pilgrims desired to take home gifts to family and friends, the people of Bethlehem have been producing many different varieties of souvenirs. My family established its business in 1853, specifically the arts and souvenirs, and in 1975, the Three Arches Company was established by my father.

The Company is registered under the companies Registrar office in Ramallah. The company is also licensed by the Palestinian Ministry of Tourism and is a member of the Bethlehem Chamber of Commerce.

Today our 400-square meter showroom contains the widest collection of meaningful products and supports over 300 Christian families who make their living out of these crafts. Some of the local merchandise is only found in the Three Arches 2.

Our Mission

As the population of Christians continues to fall due mainly to economic hardships, emigration and the declining birth rate, we seek to remain rooted in Bethlehem to welcome guests and pilgrims and show them the Holy Land through our eyes.
