Judaean Desert
The Judaean Desert or Judean Desert (Arabic: برية الخليل, romanized: Bariyat al-Khalil, Hebrew: מִדְבַּר יְהוּדָה, romanized: Midbar Yehuda) is a desert in the West Bank and Israel that lies east of the Judaean Mountains, so east of Jerusalem, and descends to the Dead Sea. Under the name El-Bariyah, it has been nominated to the Tentative List of World Heritage Sites in the State of Palestine,[1] particularly for its monastic ruins.
