[Palestine's Last Soap Factory] Nablus Soap, Traditional Palestinian Soap

【Palestine's Last Soap Factory】 Preserving a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage for the Future Traditional Nabulsi soap making is a globally recognized culture, registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. The manufacturing method, passed down since the 10th century AD, is extremely simple, using only olive oil and natural alkali. This commitment to not adding unnecessary additives has remained unchanged for over 1000 years. However, due to ongoing conflicts and political instability, only two soap factories are currently operating in Nablus. Even traditions recognized globally for their value will disappear if there are no people to preserve them and no one to support them. Nabulsi soap is not only a cultural artifact but also a soap that accompanies daily life. It is cherished by those with sensitive skin and families with infants. Because its ingredients are simple, you can truly feel its gentleness on the skin.
