Thicket Around the Jordan River
Thicket Around the Jordan River The Jordan River meanders over a length of about 200 km between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea, an actual distance of only 105 km (as the crow flies). The coastal line is covered with thicket that in antiquity housed boars among other animals.
