Sir

Sir is a small village located in the Sanur valley in the northern West Bank. It is 18km south of Jenin, the governorate capital.

Sir consists of simple, charming homes interspersed with large, shady palm trees, all benefiting from spectacular views out across the valley. Cactus is a regular feature alongside the main road to the top of the village, while bright flowers adorn homes in spring and summer.

A relatively new mosque takes pride of place in the village centre, close to a small clinic.
