Ein Sinya
Ein Sinya is a pretty little village in the Ramallah governorate, with exquisite historic buildings and an abundance of fir trees. As indicated by its name, Ein Sinya is home to a freshwater spring – or ‘Ein’.
This is a real gem of a countryside village that has much to offer. The beautiful old stone houses are fronted by palm trees and navigated by enticing little alleys which wind through arches and down steps. Colourful arrangements of flowers bedeck many front gardens and the village is fringed by open fields.
At one end you will find the village school, which caters to Ein Sinya’s small youth population, whilst older students head to the city of Ramallah, which is only 10km to the south. Many people who work in Ramallah choose to live in Ein Sinya due to its close proximity.
The village is surrounded by olive groves and fig trees, growing in abundance in the fertile valley.
