Each year, they travelled to Jerusalem for the Passover, but apparently never revisited Bethlehem.In Matthew's Gospel, they left Bethlehem and travelled to Egypt, where they remained until King Herod died. Although they had never previously been to Galilee, they then travelled to Nazareth in Galilee, so that Jesus might be called a Nazarene (Matthew 2:24).
