Qumran Gorge
Route 90 20 km south of Jericho
Description:
Perhaps the first thought people have when they hear of a dead sea is, "Oh, you can't drown there."
But it is impossible not to mention the Qumran gorge, which by its scale excited the minds of historians.
This place amazes lovers of antiquity not only for its unique architecture, but also for the culture of the people who lived here.
It is believed that these were the European sects of the Essenes who left behind the library.
Fans of extreme rest, too, can please themselves here.
There are many hard-to-reach places to which the path lies through narrow paths between the rocks.
Views from the tops, monumental and colorful nature will not leave anyone indifferent, and thanks to souvenir shops you can buy part of the gorge, which will remind of a breathtaking journey.
You can get to the gorge on 90 highways, the path is 20 km from Jericho.
