The magi are referred to as the three wise men and they traveled to find Jesus Christ our savior. God guided them by the Northern star.
Appearance of a new star in the sky told the Magician Priests of the East that a holy birth has taken place. So guided by this lode star, they set out on a long journey crossing mountains and deserts bearing unique gifts from the East and reached the city of Bethlehem to pay respect to the new born babe, the future secret protection, security and training of whom they dutifully and happily took on their shoulders.
A:In Matthew's Gospel their journey was to Egypt, where they fled from their home in Bethlehem for fear of King Herod. They bega the return journey some years later, after the death of Herod, but turned aside and travelled instead to a city called Nazareth in Galilee. In Luke's Gospel their journey was from Nazareth to Bethlehem to Bethlehem, where Joseph was required for a census. A few days after the birth of Jesus they journeyed to Jerusalem, where they presented Jesus at the Temple, then returned peacefully to the home in Nazareth. Each year thereafter, the young family made the journey to Jerusalem for the Passover.

AnswerIn Matthew's version of the nativity of Jesus, Joseph and Mary fled with Jesus from Bethlehem to Egypt to escape King Herod, who wanted to have Jesus killed. After Herod died and it appeared safe to do so, they began the journey back to their home in Bethlehem, but being warned in a dream turned aside and made the long journey to Nazareth in Galilee instead.
In Christianity, Bethlehem is known as the birthplace of Jesus. Joseph arrived in Bethlehem with his very pregnant wife, Mary and could not find accommodations at any inn. Desperate for shelter, they retired to a stable and Joseph made Mary as comfortable as he could in a small manger. There, she gave birth to the infant Jesus.

At the time of Luke's journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem, Mary and Joseph were only bethrothed, and Mary was still a virgin. We can assume that they were both in their teens, with Mary probably in her early teens. Their parents would likely still have been alive and less than forty years old. If there really was a census during the reign of King Herod, something most scholars dipute strongly, then Joseph's parents would have been expected to go Bethlehem as well. Tradition tends to support the notion that Mary was also descended from King David, although the Bible is silent on this, in which case we could also expect her parents to travel to Bethlehem as well. However, for some reason, Luke's Gospel makes no mention of the extended family travelling together to Bethlehem.
