Answer:

It is true. European Christians consider Jerusalem to be holiday land because it was where Jesus was born, preached, and died.

Step-by-step explanation:

However, according to the Bible and most other sources, Jesus was actually born in Bethlehem near Jerusalem. He spent some time in Nazareth but later preached in Jerusalem where he was eventually captured by the Romans and crucified.

While his birthplace is not confirmed, it is generally believed that Jesus spent most of his life here and the city is often associated as Holy by Christians due to this.

Today, the city is a point of pilgrimage for Christians from all over the world.
