The Plain of Manasseh (, ''Ramat Menashe'', ''lit.'' Manasseh Height) is a geographical region in northern Israel, located on the Carmel Range, between Mount Carmel and Mount Amir/Umm al-Fahm. While it is part of the mountain range, it is actually just 200 m above sea level on average, and peaks at 400 m. The plain is bordered by the Jezreel Valley to the northeast, the Yokne'am Stream to the northwest, Wadi Ara to the southeast, and the Nadiv Valley to the southwest. Ramat Menashe is called ''Balad ar-Ruha'' in Arabic, meaning "Land of Winds". The Plain of Menasseh, known also as Ramot Menashe, was officially added to UNESCO's World Network of Biosphere Reserves in 2011. The plain was credited with encompassing "a mosaic of ecological systems that represent the Mediterranean Basin's version of the global evergreen sclerophyllous forests, woodlands and scrub ecosystem types." ==Localities== The following localities are located on the Plain of Manasseh:〔 *Dalya *Ein HaEmek *Ein HaShofet *Gal'ed *Ramat HaShofet *Ramot Menashe 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Plain of Manasseh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
