Mount Carmel


Mount Carmel (, ''Har HaKarmel'' ISO 259-3 ''Har ha Karmell'' (''lit.'' God's vineyard); (アラビア語:الكرمل), ''Kurmul'' or جبل مار إلياس ''Jabal Mar Elyas'' 'Mount Saint Elias') is a coastal mountain range in northern Israel stretching from the Mediterranean Sea towards the southeast. The range is a UNESCO biosphere reserve and a number of towns are located there, most notably the city of Haifa, Israel's third largest city, located on the northern slope.
==Geography and geology==
The phrase "Mount Carmel" has been used in three distinct ways:〔
*To refer to the 39 km-long (24-mile long) mountain range, stretching as far in the southeast as Jenin.
*To refer to the northwestern of the mountain range.
*To refer to the headland at the northwestern end of the range.
The Carmel range is approximately wide, sloping gradually towards the southwest, but forming a steep ridge on the northeastern face, high. The Jezreel Valley lies to the immediate northeast. The range forms a natural barrier in the landscape, just as the Jezreel Valley forms a natural passageway, and consequently the mountain range and the valley have had a large impact on migration and invasions through the Levant over time.〔 The mountain formation is an admixture of limestone and flint, containing many caves, and covered in several volcanic rocks.〔〔 The sloped side of the mountain is covered with luxuriant vegetation, including oak, pine, olive, and laurel trees.〔
Several modern towns are located on the range, including Yokneam on the eastern ridge, Zikhron Ya'akov on the southern slope, the Druze communities of Daliyat al-Karmel and Isfiya on the more central part of the ridge, and the towns of Nesher, Tirat Hakarmel, and the city of Haifa, on the far northwestern promontory and its base. There is also a small kibbutz called Beit Oren, which is located on one of the highest points in the range to the southeast of Haifa.
