Google is a great thing, but Qumran near the Dead sea, where the scrolls were found, is a very beautiful place and the Dead sea itself is one of the finalists in the new7wonders of nature campaign (you can vote here: http://www.facebook.com/VoteDeadSea ). I think people better get off the couch and visit the place.
