Graffiti artist Banksy opened ‘The Walled Off Hotel’ in the Palestinian city of Bethlehem in March 2017, his first major project since Dismaland in 2015. ‘The Walled Off Hotel’ is only a few metres the West Bank barrier. Only visitors staying at the art hotel in Bethlehem are able to purchase souvenirs and gifts designed by Banksy. It is very difficult to get these pieces as each person can only purchase 2 items.
