Judaean Mountains, Israel

St. George monastery

By Amit Musaei, independent tour guide in Israel

Established at the 4th century C.E, St. George monastery located at the Judean desert, far enough from Jerusalem for its hermits to be in solitude but close enough to celebrate the holidays and to get groceries. The hermits are using Wadi Qelt(heb: Prat), which flows below the monastery, waters for their needs.
