People often mistakenly assume al-Walajah to be a Bethlehem village, when it is in fact a Jerusalem village and has always been part of the Jerusalem Governorate. It is also seen as unique among the uprooted villages of Palestine, because after being displaced, its community rebuilt the village and gave it the same name: al-Walajah or al-Walajah al-Jadidah (New al-Walajah).
