Nablus Governorate, Administrative territory in central West Bank, State of Palestine

The Nablus Governorate extends over 605 square kilometers of hilly terrain between Mount Ebal and Mount Gerizim in the northern section of West Bank.

The region contains archaeological remains from multiple civilizations, including Roman structures from when the area was called Flavia Neapolis during the 1st century CE.

The territory maintains three refugee camps - Askar, Balata, and Ein Beit al-Ma - where Palestinian communities preserve their traditions through generations.

The governorate connects to Jerusalem through a 53-kilometer road network, serving as a central point for agricultural trade and administrative services.

Local manufacturers in the region continue the centuries-old tradition of producing olive oil soap using methods dating back to the 10th century.
