Banksy Opens Walled Off Hotel In West Bank With Hopes Of Enticing Israelis & Other World Travelers

British activist artist Banksy has launched Walled Off Hotel with the hope of enticing Israeli tourists -- and dialogue -- to the West Bank city of Bethlehem. Banksy says his Walled Off Hotel has "the worst view of any hotel in the world."Worse yet, the hotel's 1- rooms get just 25 minutes of direct sunlight a day.

Nestled against the controversial wall separating Israel from the Palestinian territories, Banksy's latest act of brilliance is a hotel, museum, protest site and art gallery all in one.
