The Chapel of the Milk Grotto in Bethlehem, Palestine, is a significant Christian pilgrimage site believed to be where the Holy Family took refuge during the Massacre of the Innocents before their flight into Egypt. According to tradition, a drop of the Virgin Mary's milk fell on the floor of the cave, turning the rocks white. The site is associated with fertility and motherhood, and many couples visit the chapel to pray for children.
