I thank you dearly for asking this question. In the Christian faith a man called Jesus is worshipped. He is said to be the Son of God and the Messiah. Jesus' mother, Mary, was with child in her warm comfortable womb. She was blessed with this child and the father of this child was GOD!
Mary, travelled with her "husband" to bethlehem, joe's hometown. She felt the baby starting to come. They knew this meant she was really pregnant and had to get a place to stay. However there was quote "No room at the inn". They tried 3 inns with the same answer. They had to settle for a stable. Mary had the baby in Bethlehem in a stable in a crib with cows, donkeys and pigs on Christmas Eve. This is why Bethlehem is significant. I hope that answered your question.

Who ordered the census which brought Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem?
According to the New Testament, Syrian Governor Quirinius called the Census, see Luke 2:1-7 below. Secular Historians note that Quirinius only called a census in 5 C.E., which would have been too late to be relevant for Jesus' birth.
Luke 2:1–7: In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child.
