Long and narrow in shape, Palestine is about 290 miles (470 km.) in length and 85 miles (135 km.) in width at its widest point.
Although small in size, Palestine encompasses the varied topographical features of an entire continent, ranging from forested highlands and fertile green valleys to mountainous deserts and from the coastal plain to the semitropical Jordan Valley and the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth.
