RAMALLAH, West Bank — A group of 50 journalists, bloggers and social media activists has embarked on a blogging tour in a bus sponsored by the Taghyeer media organization. On the morning of Nov. 4, the bus left for the town of Sebastia, northwest of Nablus, and the Village of Kur, southeast Tulkarm, both in the northern West Bank.
This is the second tour for the Social Media Bus in less than a month. The first started off Oct. 15 in the city of Jericho and visited several archaeological and natural sites suffering from neglect in the province, including Wadi Qelt and Nabi Moussa. The bloggers encouraged Palestinians to visit these areas and urge officials to focus on ailing sites.
