Ein Hemed is a national park and nature reserve in the hills seven kilometres west of modern Jerusalem and some 12 kilometres west of the Old City. It is also known by the Latin name it received from the Crusaders, Aqua Bella, and as Khirbat Iqbalā in Arabic. The park is located on the path of an old Roman road, also used in later periods. The road connected the coastal plain with Jerusalem, passing through Bab al-Wad. A fortified Hospitaller building from the Crusader period, relatively well preserved, is arguably the main attraction beside the streams and lush vegetation.

The Resurrection Church (Hebrew: הכנסייה הצלבנית באבו גוש Latin: Ecclesia Resurrectionis Domini Nostri Iesu), or the Church of the Crusaders in Abu Gosh, is the name given to a Catholic religious building consisting of a structure of the time of the Crusaders who belonged to the Knights Hospitaller, and today is a part of the Benedictine monastery in Abu Ghosh, in central Israel. The church is located in a place that was interpreted as described in Luke as Emmaus. The Crusader church was probably a Byzantine church, and this in turn was built on a Roman fortress.

The Benedictine monastery in Abu Ghosh, officially St Mary of the Resurrection Abbey, French: Abbaye Sainte-Marie de la Résurrection d'Abu Gosh) is a monastery run by the Olivetan Benedictine order in Abu Ghosh, Israel. Its church is built on the foundations of the Crusader-period Church of the Resurrection, or Church of our Lord's Resurrection. It was established in the 12th century on top of Roman ruins in the center of Abu Ghosh, known by the Crusaders as Fontenoid. Until the 19th century, the Arabs called the village Qaryet al-'Inab. The site was associated by the Crusaders with Emmaus from the Gospel of Luke. France claims ownership of the land as a French Domaine national français en Terre sainte, under the Ottoman capitulations and says this was formalised by the Fischer-Chauvel Agreement of 1948, which has not been ratified by Israel.
