Come Take a Tour of Palestine Gardens

Discover for yourself, "the Replica of the Holy Land," for a deeper understanding of the Bible, the Holy Land, and biblical times. See the natural, historical, educational, and artistic elements of Palestine Gardens. Click on Map and Directions, for simple directions off of Highway 98 in Lucedale, Mississippi, to take a tour.

Tours take about one hour depending on your schedule and enjoyment. The Walking Tour is about 1/4 mile with benches along the way. For those with special needs a golf cart is available.

We try to give guided tours to all who visit, regardless of the number of people in a party. But, to better serve you and to schedule our work day, it is very helpful if you can let us know when you will be visiting - especially if your party size is large. If you can't, that's okay. We would rather have you visit than miss the opportunity to meet new friends - Just excuse our work clothes!

Our gardens are recommended for families, tourists, youth groups, seniors, school field trips, Vacation Bible Schools, church fellowships, preschoolers, and home schoolers. Travellers passing through the Hospitality State are invited to stop in to stretch their legs along our garden paths. We provide a quiet and safe rest stop.
