More about the place
Khan al-Luban was apparently built during the Mamluk period or early in the Ottoman period, along the ancient road connecting Jerusalem to Shechem, at the foot of Ma'ale Levona. Caravans traveling to Jerusalem stayed overnight here before the steep ascent, about a day's walk from the city. The structure is square and single-story: at the entrance are stables on both sides, and from there you enter an inner courtyard. The khan also features a spring and a pool of water.
